Evaluation of the Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT) Program at the Nebraska Department of Correctional Services: Results Summary
This project evaluated the Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT) program that is used in the Nebraska
Department of Correctional Services (NDCS). The goals of the project were to provide feedback to
NDCS regarding:
- The NDCS facilities that successfully provide MRT services to inmates;
- Whether MRT participation reduces institutional misconducts and recidivism among inmates;
- Whether MRT program participation is related to inmates’ participation in other types of
programming; and - The characteristics of inmates who participate in and complete MRT programming.
