| Summary: | The study gets access to the concept of “reintegration” which generally refers to the
social integration measures designed to assist offenders who are being released from a freedom-depried institution, such as a prison, a detention centre or a reform school, and help them face the
challenges associated with their return to the community. This assistance involves both addressing
the offenders’ needs and managing the risk they may cause to the community. Programmes and
measures must be in pace to identify and address offenders’ needs and prepare them for their
return to the community. A key aspect of effectiveinterventions for the social integration of
offenders is an understanding of the factors that could posibly place them at rick as well as making
it difficult for them to function normally in society. The intervention programmes which have been
expanded in various countries to assist the social integration of offenders vary in efficacy and not
all the categories of offenders. The most effectiveinterventions are those that directly address the
needs and challenges faced by the offenders, as well as the factors of risk nature. The programmes
of the oganizations and agencies and community-based programs must complement each other and
focus on education, employment, accommodation, drugs and alcohol addiction, mental health,
social networks, cognitive skills, viewpoints and attitudes. |
