But for all that money it has failed to make our communities safer while producing an abysmal 70 percent recidivism rate ... a hearing to investigate how improving access to mental health and substance abuse services for parolees, probationers and at-risk groups can result in lower incarceration and recidivism rates"--Page 1.
