What is Aftercare
The Aftercare Program
Life following treatment and/or incarceration is when the real work begins. Many woman find themselves asking, “Clean and sober, now what?” Readjusting to family life, finding a job and a decent place to live, and gaining acceptance in the general community present major challenges for recently emancipated women. Without a good support system in place, it is almost impossible to accomplish these goals. Research has shown that this lack of support is a major reason for re-offending among parolees and probationers.
