Quote by Bobby Scott
Studies have shown that inmate participation in education, vocational and job training, prison work skills development, drug abuse, mental health and other treatment programs, all reduce recidivism, significantly.
Summary
This quote highlights the positive impact of rehabilitation programs in reducing recidivism rates among inmates. Research suggests that prisoner engagement in various educational, vocational, and treatment initiatives such as drug abuse and mental health programs, not only provides them with valuable skills and knowledge but also contributes to their successful reintegration into society after release. By addressing underlying issues and addressing gaps in their education and job skills, these programs play a crucial role in breaking the cycle of criminal behavior, leading to a significant reduction in the likelihood of reoffending.
