How to use "Correctional" in context?
Correctional facilities provide institutional care for people who have committed criminal offences. Correctional centres and jails house individuals who have been convicted of a criminal offence, pending their transfer to prison or parole. The majority of people who are incarcerated are male, and the majority of them are young adults.
Correctional systems are designed to rehabilitate offenders and enable them to reintegrate into society. The aim of correctional systems is to protect society and offenders by reducing crime, while providing offenders with the opportunity to learn from their mistakes, and to reform themselves.
