Best Answer

Most inmates do not receive any rehabilitation because there is so many and not enough money or programs. the inmates are just locked away "cold turkey" with the hopes that will help.

Believe it or not but it would cost the state less money to but an inmate in a substance abuse house/ program verses sending them to prison and locking the door and hiding the key for (said amount of time) Maybe some inmates could get the help them need verses going back to drugs, alcohol once they get out.

How do open prisons work?

Open prisons, also known as minimum-security or "residential" prisons, allow inmates a greater degree of freedom and responsibility compared to traditional prisons. Inmates may be able to leave the prison during the day for work, education, or other pre-approved activities, but they must return to the prison at night. However, open prisons still have rules and supervision, and inmates may be required to wear electronic monitoring devices or be subjected to regular checks to ensure compliance with their conditions. The aim is to facilitate rehabilitation, reintegration, and reduce the risk of reoffending.
