With 60,000 Youth Incarcerated Daily, Which Reentry Programs Reduce Recidivism?

An October 2017 study found the most potent predictor of recidivism was being a Black male, even though Black men had less contact with the criminal justice system and few of the risk factors traditionally associated with recidivism. Juvenile re-entry is the focus of this episode examining programs that work like Lamont Carey’s Contact Visits in Washington, D.C. and Chad Houser’s Momentum Cafe in Dallas, Texas.

  1. Not a word about the role of parents in their lives. "Mamas" drop babies, they cannot afford nor care to raise, and pipeline them to jail and grave. No programs/investments can change outcome.

  2. Our system is aimed at keeping these people in the system it is eternal punishment for them and an endless source of money for prisons and "law enforcement". This is no accident, 80% of people in prisons never go to trial the system is so rigged that unless you have wealth you will not get justice.

  3. Do like I did and millions like me. STAY IN SCHOOL. LEARN A MARKETABLE SKILL. AVOID ALCOHOL AND DRUG USE. OBEY THE LAW. LIVE A GOOD AND JUST LIFE AND ASK FOR GOD'S FORGIVNESS EVERY DAY!!!!

  4. Try also naming a cultural heritage that eschews education for the more glamorous gang life. It’s the #1 reason blacks wind up incarcerated more than any other demographic. It’s a major reason racism continues.

  5. RussiaTeering Trump's masses rioting, everywhere.. …NY state AG indicting RACKETEERS TRUMP and his Mobster subjects. Think… RussiATEERS TRUMP, NRussiA, FoX , Militias will turn their SUBJECTS loose in a Revenge Civil War

  6. Most have never had self control. They don’t listen they only want to be heard! That’s what hip-hop is all about. Talking loud and saying nothing. No self control

  7. "A 42 year old man took her home and tried to have sex with her." Translation: She was a prostitute who hooked up with a client, then robbed and murdered him. TRN: Lies, lies, lies.

  8. The US could learn a lesson or two from Norway (they have a 20% recidivism rate vs. 70-80% in the US).
    It is not due to what US officials call unaffordable luxury prisons, it is due to the treatment of prisoners and the programs they go through prior to release, as well as followup after release.
    Norway has a true correctional system, where the goal is to convert criminals into ordinary neighbors and tax-paying citizens when they have served their terms

  9. Don't believe prison programs. Some may start out with good intentions.last time I was in 2012. I had enough of this shit. Instead of fighting It . I took every bullshit thing they offered. Take any education. Had a ged before I fell a chance came up. A college small business accounting was offered. I Finished it 3.7 gpa.that wasn't easy for me. Walked out the gates.went straight into community college. Only cause I received a pell grant. Finished trade school for welding program. No one will hire me cause I'm to old. But I learned something new. I haven't been back don't plan on it. Anyone been threw thier system. Knows who really should be behind the bars. Cops laywer's, DAs. Judges. Any so called professional thats testified for Courts.

  10. I side with legalize and release all the non violent (Beings) That this oppressive system has detained. The meaning of Non Violent?? Was the Violence Caused Due to Arrest, or Fear of Arrest?? Many Cases need Review!! Reduce the Population of These Degrading, Violent , Schools Teaching How to Harm and Hate and Discriminate!!! ((PRISONS)) How many families has this law destroyed? How many have lost homes, careers, vehicles, land Lives destroyed?? How many billions of the peoples tax dollars have been spent on another War?? What about the gang violence??
    Just look what it cost YOU THE TAX PAYER!!! 30,000 Dollars per Year 3 in a Cell that is 7 feet by 10 feet = 90,000 Per Cell Each YEAR!!! They are not eating steaks or sleeping on a certa!!! Concrete bed with a 2 inch mat!!! Fighting for their lives and being treated like animals!!!!! WHO MADE THESE LAWS!!!!!!!
    It is not you and I who make these laws!!
    The Corporations PAY Lobbyist who in turn Buy Favors ((BRIBE)) their friends !!!
    I do not see people drinking Gasoline or Eating Poison? No Jail Time no Crime??
    WHO PROFITS?? Do you own STOCK in this SYSTEM!!! You ARE !!!
    WHO PAYS??? EVERYONE ELSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  11. I believe prison is private owner. So it a business. And we all know that when something is business everything else does not mater. Sadly.

  12. Prevention and not detention. Black Americans and their environments are being ignored and with hostile prejudice.This conversation should be about ending poverty and bring forward these communities so they have opportunities that keep crime from being a necessity for surviving each day. They suffer from complete corruption at the local level. Stop voting for these 2 parties and expecting change. It ain't happening! City, county and state corruption is at an all time high!

  13. Systemic racism in the US is directly linked to crimes, especially crimes against Whites, and especially crimes against White women. So, if White supremacists were more smart than racist, they would have thought about protecting White women by preventing crimes caused by systemic racism in AmeriKKKa.
