Classification in corrections aims to enhance safety and security by managing inmates' behavior, protecting the public, and segregating inmates based on risk levels. It does not specifically aim to protect sexual offenders from juvenile offenders; this choice misrepresents the goals of classification, which are more broadly focused on overall inmate management and safety.
