Most prisoners are men. According to the numbers published by the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP), on 6th November 2021, 93.0 percent of the approximately 146,500 federal inmates are men, and only 7.0 percent are women. This gap proves that more men are getting involved in crimes and becoming incarcerated. The rehabilitation and correction given in penitentiaries are significant. However, society needs to establish support mechanisms to help them break the traumas and barriers of stigmatization. Given support, men can bounce back faster and stronger and become very instrumental figures in the community.

Join the conversation with Nickole Brewster as she engages with a male inmate of Oregon State Penitentiary, who has been incarcerated for 18 years. He shares his experiences behind bars, the whole issue of rehabilitation, and how one can easily fall back into crimes right after release from prison. He also shares some thoughts about how society can help ex-convicts by setting systems such as mentors to help them get rooted back in society and educational opportunities.
