As reintegration into the community is a key element of an ex-prisoner\u2019s successful transition out of prison, this study focused specifically on the challenges that ex-prisoners face as they attempt to re-join their communities.

A secondary focus of this study was to observe how entrepreneurship training for ex-prisoners might assist with reintegration. The following report summarises the findings of this study, including qualitative evidence, theoretical context from pre-existing research in the areas of rehabilitation and reintegration, as well as preliminary recommendations for future interventions and research.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18591,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"redux-templates_full_width","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[102],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18589","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-publications"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/advanceafrika.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18589","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/advanceafrika.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/advanceafrika.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/advanceafrika.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/advanceafrika.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18589"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/advanceafrika.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18589\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18593,"href":"https:\/\/advanceafrika.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18589\/revisions\/18593"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/advanceafrika.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18591"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/advanceafrika.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18589"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/advanceafrika.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18589"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/advanceafrika.org\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18589"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
