The United States incarcerates more people, in both absolute numbers and per capita, than any other nation in the world. Since 1970, the number of incarcerated people has increased sevenfold to 2.3 million in jail and prison today, far outpacing population growth and crime.

In the United States, approximately half a million correctional officers are responsible for supervising more than two million inmates. Correctional officers are exposed to unique workplace hazards within a controlled prison environment.

During your reading this term, you read some chapters from the textbook and reviewed some resources about mass incarceration and the death penalty. You reviewed those chapters again this week. For this assignment, you will be using the template, Prisons Assignment Template [DOCX]. For the assignment, you will address the following:

Explain when prison overcrowding became a problem in the United States and what was the main issue that caused the overcrowding.
Explain how various alternatives to incarceration work.
List the pros and cons for various alternatives to incarceration.
Describe the effectiveness of various alternatives to incarceration.
List death penalty related statistics for a state in the United States.

Write a 2–3 page evaluation of the quality improvement program that you have created. This should be the annual summary of the hypothetical data. Make sure your hypothetical data are credible.

Part 2:
As you may recall from Week 1, your Course Project was to prepare a total quality improvement program, with a focus on one high-risk area. Continuous quality improvement covers many areas. Throughout the course, you have learned about the attributes that constitute a quality improvement team and what questions this team attempts to answer. The assignments toward this project that you completed each week can now be assembled into a single instructional document.

Make necessary adjustments to your document so that each segment flows smoothly into the next. Evaluate your project using the criteria given below.

Are the indicators and their measurements appropriate to the high-risk area? Do the indicators capture the risk?
Are the fictional incidents realistic and plausible?
Is the filled chart consistent with the fictional incident?
Is the plan of correction feasible? Will it prevent the occurrence of the incident in future?
How do you know the plan worked? What measures will you use to identify effectiveness?
Include an introduction, conclusion and reference page to this assignment.
