Value Clarification
Values Clarification classes provide offenders with an opportunity to examine and evaluate their values, behaviors, and beliefs that led to their offense, while exploring alternate behaviors and beliefs that may produce healthier choices.
Values are beliefs about what is important, or what matters most to them. They can be just about anything, such as family, hard work, success, or having a good time. Sometimes, people lose sight of their values—they live their life in a way that’s incongruent with what they believe. For example, someone who values family might become overwhelmed by work, and neglect their relationships.
Shoplifting / Theft
“Shoplifting” generally refers to the theft of merchandise from a store or place of business. Shoplifting is a type of larceny, which simply means taking the property of someone else without their permission, and with the intent to permanently deprive the owner of the property taken.
