Illinois Prisoners' Reentry Success Three Years after Release

Publication year: 2008 | Cataloged on: Sep. 02, 2008
ANNOTATION: Factors contributing to the ability of some ex-offenders to steer clear of rearrest, reconviction, or reincarceration during the three years following their release from prison are ascertained. This Brief is comprised of these sections: key findings; brief organization; the Returning Home study; reentry success three years out; demographics and criminal history; employment and substance use; housing and neighborhoods; family and peer relationships; attitudes and expectations; physical and mental health; and summary and policy implications. "[R]eentry success was largely affected by [ex-offenders'] experiences before and after incarceration rather than during incarceration" (p. 6).
