Description
Reentry, according to Ram Cnaan and Jill Sinha, is defined as the process of leaving
prison and returning to family, the labor force, the community, and the greater society.
The process of reentry represents crucial points in the corrections system from several
different perspectives. How successfully an individual fares post-release is, in part,
a reflection of the effectiveness of the larger criminal justice system and may have
significant consequences for the community to which a prisoner returns.
