Summary
Guided by a social justice perspective, the study believes that reentry programs and inmate treatment play crucial roles in shaping rehabilitation outcomes. The existing problem involves inadequate ethical treatment, rehabilitation methods, and post-release support for inmates, contributing to high recidivism rates. The rationale lies in challenging the traditional, uniform approach to rehabilitation research and emphasizing the importance of individual narratives. The potential benefits include improving the understanding of rehabilitation factors and, consequently, enhancing the overall prison system in the United States. Ultimately, reducing recidivism through successful rehabilitation can contribute to public safety and well-being.
