The ultimate re-entry guide for ex-offenders in transition from prison walls to the Free World. Indeed, each year nearly 700,000 ex-offenders exit prison for the Free World. Within three years of release, two-thirds return to prison where they each cost taxpayers between $25,00 and $556,539 a year to experience questionable justice, retribution, and rehabilitation. Twelve hard-hitting chapters outline a clear seven-step process for re-entry success. Addresses everything from attitudes, motivation, and education to telling the truth, taking responsibility, building trust, seeking community-based assistance, and leaving a legacy. Filled with useful examples and exercises as well as a purpose-driven journal for daily action planning. Includes special updated chapters on community-based re-entry assistance and navigating today's digital world for individuals who have been locked behind prison firewalls for a long time.
