ABSTRACT
[...]because of the lack of preparation, support, and services, many formerly incarcerated individuals wind up re-incarcerated. According to a BJS review of criminal history data from 34 states, 6 in IO people released from prison in 2012 were rearrested within three years. Correctional facilities serve as congregate care settings, with limited access to appropriate protective equipment and materials to maintain sanitary conditions, limited ability for incarcerated people to adopt public health mitigation measures such as social distancing, and relatively low rates of vaccination. See Craig Haney, The Psychological Impact of Incarceration Implications for Post-Prison Adjustment (prepared for the From Prison to Home Conf., Jan. 30-31, 2002), https//tinyurl.com/yc335v5v. [...]there is often an inability to maintain a healthy lifestyle, with limited access to nutritious food, time outdoors, or physical activity, and a woeful lack of access to treatment and resources for individuals with chronic physical health, mental health, and substance use issues.
