It’s amazing what offering some humanity can accomplish.
Even ignoring the humanity aspect of it: the simple notion of focusing on rehabilitation rather than profit. That should be the goal of all incarceration.
The fact that, in this country, this is pretty much the one small part of the incarceration process that has been pried back from the claws of vampiric companies psychologically abusing inmates for profit is…beyond depressing.
And that’s why you will NEVER see it in states like Texas and Mississippi. Rehabilitation and low recidivism rate are only goals for the state of California, not the rest of the USA.
Great news, I think this is really important to help society heal.
