Barracks Behind Bars II

About

This paper is the fourth in the National Institute of Corrections justice-involved veteran compendium project. It highlights programs in prisons across the country that work to improve outcomes for justice-involved veterans, and - in doing so - increase safety for law enforcement officers, correctional officers, inmates, and the public.

It illustrates the design/development, implementation, and sustainment of initiatives taken by enlightened, pragmatic corrections officials who have set up specialized housing—in pods, dorms, units, wings, or floors—and programming for military veterans.
