Treated inmates less likely to reoffend, Indiana study finds
Original: Study involving IU School of Medicine researchers shows inmates who get treatment are less likely to reoffend
Researchers at the Indiana University School of Medicine have taken part in a study indicating that inmates who receive treatment while incarcerated are less likely to reoffend after release. The findings, reported by Indiana Lawyer, suggest that providing medical or behavioral treatment in prisons could reduce repeat offenses and ease pressures on the justice system.
Why now: The new findings have implications for correctional health policy and recidivism-reduction debates in Indiana.
