"We all can be active in some way to address the social issues that foster criminal behavior, such as: lack of self-esteem or hope in some segments of our society, poverty, lack of health care (particularly mental health care), lack of education, and family dysfunction." - Harriet Miers
Not only does it evidence the mindset of a social worker, it's poorly written too.
