How Prison Release could be different



Background checks could prevent housing for formerly incarcerated people

Released prisoners could go to homestays

Prisoners could less expensively / more easily communicate with family

A classroom could be on wheels for at-risk youths and adults

A 12-month program with paid work and housing could help ex-offenders, the homeless, and/or drug addicts

Prison release halfway houses could be redesigned, better managed, and/or not used

Prisoners could receive housing vouchers, food vouchers and/or a basic income upon release to reduce recidivism
