In conclusion the changes among ex-offenders in a social aspect and mental health can be debatable. Inmates go through harsh adjustments when entering the prison life style as well as transitioning back into the real world. Factors that might sway individuals in different paths include the detachment of family members, distance in their remarkable relationships and the dehumanization of the prison facility. Programs such as Prison Fellowship help balance risk-factors by wanting prisoners to be successful after incarceration. With the increasing amount of persons in state and federal prisons at approximately 4,300 prisoners between 2012 and 2013 this topic is a huge concern (Ann Carson, 2014).
