Drawing upon a small sample (n=7) from a wider PhD study (n=38) on peer work and desistance in prisoners, probationers and former probationers in England, narratives were reanalysed thematically to explore the desistance potential of 12SPs. The author has personal experience of 12SPs and has also worked within criminal justice (Prison Service). Themes identified suggest that 12SPs can be a \u2018hook for change\u2019 and allow for \u2018changing of playground\u2019. Tools offered through 12SPs can help structure and shape daily routines, develop discipline and manageability of self, and the collective responsibility of 12 step groups can develop social, human and recovery capital which might potentially support desistance supporting roles like employment and parenting. Not all 12 step members are involved with the criminal justice system, so this article presents a small sample of participants with extensive criminal careers. 12 step sponsorship (peer support) can allow for development of generativity, altruism and empathy where self becomes an \u2018expert by experience\u2019 thus transmitting experience, strength and hope to others. Redemptive narratives and moral agency were also evident. The aim of this article is therefore to help criminal justice practitioners to understand (from an \u2018insider perspective\u2019) the transformative potential that 12SPs might offer in supporting criminal desistance.<\/p>\n<h5>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner limit_content=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_inner column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; align_mobile=&#8221;align_center_mobile&#8221; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_button button_color=&#8221;accent&#8221; size=&#8221;btn-lg&#8221; radius=&#8221;btn-square&#8221; wide=&#8221;yes&#8221; border_width=&#8221;0&#8243; link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fmmuperu.co.uk%2Fbjcj%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2Fsites%2F441%2F2023%2F03%2FS.Nixon_.2023.pdf|title:%E2%80%9CI%E2%80%99VE%20NEVER%20BEEN%20ARRESTED%20AT%20A%2012-STEP%20MEETING%E2%80%9D%3A%20HOW%20STRUCTURAL%20AND%20FUNCTIONAL%20MECHANISMS%20OF%2012%20STEP%20PROGRAMMES%20MIGHT%20SUPPORT%20CRIMINAL%20DESISTANCE|target:_blank&#8221; button_color_type=&#8221;uncode-palette&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;116600&#8243;]Download PDF[\/vc_button][uncode_share layout=&#8221;multiple&#8221; bigger=&#8221;yes&#8221; separator=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;2&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; column_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; back_color=&#8221;color-lxmt&#8221; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; sticky=&#8221;yes&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1601208198355{padding-right: 26px !important;padding-left: 26px !important;}&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text_color=&#8221;color-210407&#8243; heading_semantic=&#8221;h3&#8243; text_font=&#8221;font-128611&#8243; text_size=&#8221;h4&#8243; text_weight=&#8221;500&#8243;]Latest Issue[\/vc_custom_heading][uncode_index el_id=&#8221;index-163686&#8243; loop=&#8221;size:1|order_by:date|post_type:post|categories:2&#8243; screen_lg=&#8221;1000&#8243; screen_md=&#8221;600&#8243; screen_sm=&#8221;480&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; post_items=&#8221;title,date&#8221; single_text=&#8221;overlay&#8221; single_style=&#8221;dark&#8221; single_overlay_opacity=&#8221;50&#8243; single_overlay_anim=&#8221;no&#8221; single_text_visible=&#8221;yes&#8221; single_text_anim=&#8221;no&#8221; single_h_align_mobile=&#8221;left&#8221; single_padding=&#8221;0&#8243; single_title_family=&#8221;font-128611&#8243; single_title_dimension=&#8221;h5&#8243; single_title_weight=&#8221;400&#8243;][vc_button button_color=&#8221;accent&#8221; size=&#8221;btn-xl&#8221; radius=&#8221;btn-square&#8221; wide=&#8221;yes&#8221; custom_typo=&#8221;yes&#8221; font_family=&#8221;font-128611&#8243; font_weight=&#8221;500&#8243; border_width=&#8221;0&#8243; link=&#8221;url:http%3A%2F%2Fmmuperu.co.uk%2Fbjcj%2Fnewsletter%2F|title:Newsletter||&#8221;]Subscribe to our Newsletter[\/vc_button][vc_raw_html]JTNDYSUyMGNsYXNzJTNEJTIydHdpdHRlci10aW1lbGluZSUyMiUyMGRhdGEtd2lkdGglM0QlMjI0MDAlMjIlMjBkYXRhLWhlaWdodCUzRCUyMjU0NSUyMiUyMGhyZWYlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnR3aXR0ZXIuY29tJTJGYmpjb21tdW5pdHlqdXN0JTNGcmVmX3NyYyUzRHR3c3JjJTI1NUV0ZnclMjIlM0VUd2VldHMlMjBieSUyMGJqY29tbXVuaXR5anVzdCUzQyUyRmElM0UlMjAlM0NzY3JpcHQlMjBhc3luYyUyMHNyYyUzRCUyMmh0dHBzJTNBJTJGJTJGcGxhdGZvcm0udHdpdHRlci5jb20lMkZ3aWRnZXRzLmpzJTIyJTIwY2hhcnNldCUzRCUyMnV0Zi04JTIyJTNFJTNDJTJGc2NyaXB0JTNF[\/vc_raw_html][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/h5>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article aims to highlight how the structural and functional mechanisms of 12 step programmes (12SPs) might support criminal desistance.

Not all 12 step members are involved with the criminal justice system, so this article presents a small sample of participants with extensive criminal careers. 12 step sponsorship (peer support) can allow for development of generativity, altruism and empathy where self becomes an \u2018expert by experience\u2019 thus transmitting experience, strength and hope to others. Redemptive narratives and moral agency were also evident. The aim of this article is therefore to help criminal justice practitioners to understand (from an \u2018insider perspective\u2019) the transformative potential that 12SPs might offer in supporting criminal desistance.","og_url":"https:\/\/mmuperu.co.uk\/bjcj\/articles\/ive-never-been-arrested-at-a-12-step-meeting-how-structural-and-functional-mechanisms-of-12-step-programmes-might-support-criminal-desistance\/","og_site_name":"BJCJ","article_published_time":"2023-03-14T09:17:25+00:00","article_modified_time":"2023-03-20T12:22:18+00:00","author":"Geroge Julian","twitter_card":"summary_large_image","twitter_misc":{"Written by":"Geroge Julian","Estimated reading time":"4 minutes"},"schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Article","@id":"https:\/\/mmuperu.co.uk\/bjcj\/articles\/ive-never-been-arrested-at-a-12-step-meeting-how-structural-and-functional-mechanisms-of-12-step-programmes-might-support-criminal-desistance\/#article","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/mmuperu.co.uk\/bjcj\/articles\/ive-never-been-arrested-at-a-12-step-meeting-how-structural-and-functional-mechanisms-of-12-step-programmes-might-support-criminal-desistance\/"},"author":{"name":"Geroge Julian","@id":"https:\/\/mmuperu.co.uk\/bjcj\/#\/schema\/person\/194b15b183d697c5dc9a926f5255116b"},"headline":"\u201cI\u2019ve Never Been Arrested At A 12-step Meeting\u201d: How Structural And Functional Mechanisms Of 12 Step Programmes Might Support Criminal Desistance","datePublished":"2023-03-14T09:17:25+00:00","dateModified":"2023-03-20T12:22:18+00:00","mainEntityOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/mmuperu.co.uk\/bjcj\/articles\/ive-never-been-arrested-at-a-12-step-meeting-how-structural-and-functional-mechanisms-of-12-step-programmes-might-support-criminal-desistance\/"},"wordCount":744,"commentCount":0,"keywords":["peer support","recovery","desistance"],"articleSection":["Articles"],"inLanguage":"en-GB","potentialAction":[{"@type":"CommentAction","name":"Comment","target":["https:\/\/mmuperu.co.uk\/bjcj\/articles\/ive-never-been-arrested-at-a-12-step-meeting-how-structural-and-functional-mechanisms-of-12-step-programmes-might-support-criminal-desistance\/#respond"]}]},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/mmuperu.co.uk\/bjcj\/articles\/ive-never-been-arrested-at-a-12-step-meeting-how-structural-and-functional-mechanisms-of-12-step-programmes-might-support-criminal-desistance\/","url":"https:\/\/mmuperu.co.uk\/bjcj\/articles\/ive-never-been-arrested-at-a-12-step-meeting-how-structural-and-functional-mechanisms-of-12-step-programmes-might-support-criminal-desistance\/","name":"\u201cI\u2019ve Never Been Arrested At A 12-step Meeting\u201d: How Structural And Functional Mechanisms Of 12 Step Programmes Might Support Criminal Desistance -
