Rehabilitation programs are a crucial part of the criminal justice system, aiming to reduce recidivism rates by providing inmates with the tools and resources necessary to reintegrate into society. This research focuses on understanding the need for rehabilitation in prisons and the criminal justice system. Effective rehabilitation programs provide inmates with education and vocational training, mental health and substance abuse treatment, and life skills training. These programs not only improve inmates’ chances of successful reintegration but also benefit society as a whole by reducing crime rates and associated costs. Studies suggest that inmates who participate in rehabilitation programs are less likely to reoffend and return to prison compared to those who do not participate. These programs not only improve inmates’ chances of successful reintegration but also benefit society as a whole by reducing crime rates and associated costs. Overall, while rehabilitation programs have the potential to reduce recidivism rates and benefit society, their effectiveness is contingent on adequate resources, funding, and support. The data analysis was done using a questionnaire where the questionnaire consists of 20 sets of questions where the individuals need to answer all the questions. Analyzing the responses, it was found that the highest number of respondents agreed that establishing rehabilitation centers in prisons can leave a huge impact in the prisoner’s life.Metrics
