About This Book

College for inmates represents a particularly cost-effective strategy that, while not always politically popular, can prevent states from wasting substantial tax revenue on the cycle of catch and release called recidivism. Contardo examines North Carolina's pragmatic postsecondary correctional education partnership between the Department of Correction and the Community College System. Participants call this 20-year-old arrangement a "win-win" and believe that inmate participation in such programs decreases inmate idleness, improves behavior while incarcerated, and helps former prisoners find employment after release and avoid reincarceration.
