Graduated sanctions play a crucial role in balancing public safety and rehabilitation within the criminal justice system. Among these, community service stands out as a valuable tool. On one hand, it fosters community engagement, encourages empathy, and allows offenders to give back. However, house arrest may have limited utility. While it restricts physical mobility, it doesn't necessarily address underlying issues or promote rehabilitation. Striking a balance between punitive measures and restorative justice remains essential for effective criminal justice reform.
