The "treatment" of offenders refers to the modern penological shift from Retribution (revenge) to Rehabilitation (healing). Instead of just "warehousing" criminals in cells, the system uses:
Classification: Separating first-time offenders from habitual ones.
Vocational Training: Teaching skills like carpentry, computer coding, or tailoring to ensure post-release employment.
Psychological Counseling: Addressing the underlying trauma or mental health issues that led to the crime.
Individualized Treatment: Recognizing that a "one size fits all" punishment fails to address the unique circumstances of each offender.
