“…For example, one participant explained,…[the director] has cut off people who come from halfway houses and try to keep them [bus passes] for the homeless and people with less resources. (Nhan et al, 2017, p. 15)…”

“…Further, access to stronger housing markets for EJ populations, and cost, inefficiency, and availability, the primary findings here prohibiting transportation access, are creations of the community. As Nhan et al (2017) explain, transportation is vital to connect the pieces of reentry but "is one of the least frequently provided services" (p. 17).…”

“…The experiences outlined here make it clear that navigating these expectations with existing transportation systems can seriously jeopardize access to opportunities, not to mention actual reentry success. While transportation is consistently listed among the top needs for reentry, many studies situate housing and employment ahead of transportation (for examples see La Vigne et al, 2008; Nhan et al, 2017). However, as Bohmert (2016) points out, transportation is more important than work experience or education in locating and keeping employment (Lichtenwalter et al, 2006).…”

Transportation Barriers to Successful Reentry among Returning Citizens: A Qualitative Interpretive Meta-synthesis

et al. 2021

Over 600,000 individuals return to United States communities from prison each year. Transportation has been identified as a major barrier to successful reentry. Applying qualitative interpretive meta-synthesis to achieve a deep understanding of reentry transportation obstacles, 11 articles with 362 male and female participants were identified. Two themes emerged from our analysis: (1) “Transportation connects complex obligations,” highlighting the critical role that transportation plays in the successful navigation of post-release conditions; and (2) “Transportation deficiencies exacerbate vulnerability,” revealing how transportation factors intertwine with structural issues to increase precarity.

“…In part, re-entry support can come from pre-release services provided by the institution. Staff work with the incarcerated individual to identify various aspects integral to their re-entry, such as where they will live, what extended supervision requirements they might have, and facilitate conversations with family members to ensure everyone has the same expectations [ 101 ]. Similar to most other prison-based services, the quality and intensity of pre-release services vary across institutions; thus, while in theory, re-entry staff can be a major support for child re-unification, this may not always be feasible.…”

Of the 2.5 million people who are incarcerated in the United States, over half are parents. While it is well-established that incarceration has a detrimental impact on the children of incarcerated parents, less is known regarding the psychological impact of incarceration on parents themselves. The present review summarizes existing literature on the impact of incarceration on parents retrieved via online databases. Published articles were classified according to their overall themes and summarized. Pertinent studies include the psychological and emotional consequences of incarceration on parents, the experience of parenting while incarcerated, including barriers to parenting, the utility of parenting program interventions during periods of incarceration, and how these results differ for mothers and fathers. While the existing evidence introduces these issues, there is a need for additional research on the impact of incarceration on parents. These areas for future research as well as clinical implications are discussed.

“…Par exemple, pour les individus aux prises avec une problématique de toxicomanie, la réinsertion sociale passera inévitablement par la régulation des habitudes de consommation. Cependant, des études relèvent que les contrevenants ne sont pas suffisamment informés par rapport aux services disponibles (Nhan, Bowen et Polzer, 2017) et que l'accès à des programmes ou à des services communautaires est parfois limité (Seiter et Kadela, 2003).…”
