Recidivism In The U.S.

The video discusses recidivism rates in the U.S., highlighting that six out of ten prisoners released in 2012 were rearrested within three years. Despite high numbers, there is a downward trend in reincarceration rates. Challenges such as employment and housing hinder successful reintegration. Education and reentry programs are crucial in reducing recidivism. The video also compares the U.S. with countries like Norway, which has lower recidivism rates due to a focus on restorative justice and rehabilitation.
