This is a wonderful opportunity for those inside the prison who WANT to make a difference in their lives and take advantage of the chance to learn a skill to give them an edge for when they ARE done serving their time. Hopefully, this will help those who want to make a better life for themselves if/when they get out. There will always be those who end up returning to prison for various reasons, but there will also always be those who don't.
The “residents” come bro that ain’t fooling no one. Everyone knows convicts are in there serving their time. With that being said, this seems like a good education and rehabilitation program and hopefully it continues to grow and remain funded.
Makes sense. People who commit crimes grew up in conditions much like punitive prisons. They won’t be scared straight, it’s all they know. Showing an alternative is the only way.
Great job California! You have to spend money to make money ! This wil change lives for the better... I believe that's why it's called a : " Correctional Facility ".
Why is Sacramento's mayor weighing in on San Quentin anyway? I do think that rehabilitation is our best hope, but why start out with the worst of the worst? When I went to jail, I was at the lowest threat level, so they gave us tablets to use. They had educational software on the tablets. However, I had no reception in my cell so I couldn't use it. Further, inmates that had reception were just pretending to learn so they could get credits for entertainment. The idea was good - the execution was pitiful.
what's the point of building this center if majority get arrested? The inmates who participated in rehabilitation programs, only ~43% do not return to prison after three years. That means inmates who participated in rehabilitation programs , 57% of them returned back to prison within three years.
If you have to ask this question, then you simply don't get it. If you warehouse a human being for decades and do nothing to address the behavior that got them there in the first place or make an actual effort to provide them with life skills on the outside, then yes, they will simply reoffend. Programs like this actually provide individuals with skills to become productive members of society rather than burdens on the system and, ultimately, taxpayers. It's a lot cheaper to teach them a skill that allows them to get a job on the outside than it is to lock them up. "Three hots and a cot" aren't free.
@@definitelynotcainan3353 a 43% success rate is a failure. not only does it mean that those 57% of resources have been wasted, but those 57% also endanger the public by re-offending again, eventually. You talk about them becoming productive members of society, yet 57% of them fail. It's wasted resources that could have be used for other programs/projects that hopefully have a better success rate. would you pay a program that only has a 43% success rate?
its unrealistic to think all of them are going to be rehabilitated, also, not everyone in the prison is applying for these programs. But those who do, and then those who DO get out--yes, maybe a percentage WILL end up returning to prison- but there will also be a percentage that does NOT. The point is: they ARE getting out regardless(once they serve their time)- these programs just offer them the opportunity to get an education WHILE they are serving their time, giving them an advantage, a skill for when they get out. What they do with their lives once they are released is still up to them.
California needs more jails, prisons, psych wards, drug rehab centers, hospitals, schools.
No we don’t, all the crazy people live in other states lmao we’re the healthiest state.
