I start my podcast episode off by talking about all the troubles that offenders with mental illnesses face when being released from prison back into society. There are numerous obstacles they face after they have served their debt to society and are now ready to rejoin society. I then move on to some of the different programs that are utilized to reenter offenders with mental illnesses back into society. I then finish up with some of the different things and resources that an offender needs to know about upon release from prison.
