They learn to deal with their past behavior, addictions, attitudes and anger. The Innerchange Freedom Initiative offers prisoners a system of support after they leave prison. This initiative will not help every inmate. It is not forced upon anyone who does not ask to participate. Whatever the program, we all benefit when a criminal changes his or her ways.
Prison is punishment, make no mistake.
But I have high hopes that the Innerchange Freedom Initiative will help more inmates make the right choices after they pay their debt to society.
