Summary:This chapter provides a discussion on the best practices for the reintegration of offenders into the community. More than one approach is necessary to address the emerging needs of this population. This chapter discusses some of the most prevalent barriers to reintegration and the stigmas ex-offenders face as they reintegrate into the community. This chapter also evaluates recidivism reduction strategies and community corrections strategies to facilitate the transition of offenders into the community. It then discusses the need for relationship building between law enforcement and the community to assist in reintegration strategies for justice-involved people. The chapter concludes with best practices for reintegrating offenders into the community and a review of reintegration strategies in California, Florida, and Texas state prisons.
