• Residential Proximity to Schools and Daycares (2010, background): “A subsequent validation study confirmed that poor reintegration planning characterized by unstable housing, unemployment, and a lack of social support predicted recidivism in a sample of 141 sex offenders from New Zealand (Willis & Grace, 2009).”
• Desistance and Attitudes Towards Sex Offenders: Facilitation or Hindrance? (2010, background): “…stable housing, establish pro-social support networks, create intimate relationships, and are presented with opportunities for employment, they are less likely to sexually reoffend (e.g., Hanson and Harris 2000; Hanson and MortonBourgon 2005; Hepburn and Griffin 2004; Willis and Grace 2008, 2009).”
• Demographic Differences in Public Attitudes Towards Sex Offenders (2013, background): “It is well established that employment instability, lack of prosocial support and poor prison release plans are associated with an increased risk of sexual recidivism (e.g., Hanson & Harris, 2000; Hanson & Morton-Bourgon, 2005; Willis & Grace, 2008, 2009).”
• Reductions in Risk Based on Time Offense-Free in the Community: Once a Sexual Offender, Not Always a Sexual Offender (2017, background): “In a series of studies, Willis and colleagues (Scoones, Willis, & Grace, 2012; Willis & Grace, 2008, 2009) have shown that reduced recidivism is associated with high-quality release plans that support accommodation, positive social connections, employment, and prosocial, personally meaningful goals.”
