Abstract

This paper presents the results of an evaluation of a sociotherapeutic workshop within Geneva's remand prison "CHAMP-DOLLON. " We have studied a sample of guards and inmates who have participated in this activity using a direct questionnaire and grid techniques. The results suggest that participants and guards react positively to the sociotherapeutic treatment setting. Participants strongly differentiate between the sociotherapeutic workshop and the rest of the prison. There appears to be evidence that the inmates' well-being is enhanced as a result of their sociotherapeutic involvement. No conclusions about the workshop's long term effects can be drawn.
