BINALLA, ZYRA L., FERAER, ERICKSON F., and MARGES, JONEL PAOLO R. Effectiveness of the Therapeutic Community Modality in General Trias Municipal Jail. Undergraduate Thesis. Bachelor of Science in Criminology. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 2015. Adviser: Prof. Nica A. Dalisan.
The study was conducted from December 2014 to January 2015 in Gen. Trias Municipal Jail, Cavite to evaluate the effectiveness of the Therapeutic Community Modality Programs (TCMP) at the said municipal jail. Specifically, it aimed to: 1) classify the participants' demographic characteristics; 2) identify the level of effectiveness of the therapeutic community modality programs as perceived by the residents and jail officers; 3) identify if there is a significant difference between the perceptions of the residents and jail officers; 4) identify if there is significant relationship between the demographic profiles of the participants and the overall level of effectiveness of therapeutic community modality programs; and 5) recommend actions that will enhance the therapeutic community modality programs. Descriptive-survey method was used in the study. Prepared questionnaires and interviews were done to gather important data. There were 15 jail officers and 207 residents at the jail. Complete enumeration of jail officers and only 135 residents were included as participants in the study. Findings showed that most of the residents in General Trias Municipal Jail are male, are young adult, reached high school level, and stayed in the jail from six months to three years and above. Also, large numbers of jail officers are male, are young adult and are college graduates. Their length of service ranges from six months to nineteen (19) years.
Analysis of data showed that the TCM programs were "effective" as perceived by the residents and "very effective" to jail officers. Thus, there is a significant difference between the perceptions of residents and jail officers. There was also no significant relationship between demographic profiles and the overall level of effectiveness of the therapeutic community modality programs. The therapeutic community modality programs implemented in Gen. Trias Municipal Jail was positively accepted and performed by the residents. Thus, it is recommended that the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) must ensure the adaption of the TCMP among various jails in the country. Further, findings showed that Gen. Trias Municipal Jail cannot afford to house female residents due to its small facility. Hence, it is further recommended that the municipal government of Gen. Trias must attend to the request of Gen. Trias Municipal Jail regarding the allotment of new jail facilities with a wider scope.
