Rehabilitation project for ex-prisoners
We at TOUCH WORLD believe that everyone deserves a second chance. As part of the rehabilitation program, we have been able to provide enough resources for some ex-prisoners to gain stability in their lives.
Innumerable obstacles face those who are released, beginning with psycho-social stigma. Most challenging is the paradox of either seeking re-integration into the community or being forced to re-connect with living under criminogenic influences.
The released inmates have immense potential to contribute to the society- culturally and economically. Having a source of income can help them get back on their feet without having to resort to criminal behaviour. Their participation in society leads to a more holistic existence.
There are no specific activities under this project. The funds received are used to set up small businesses for the released inmates for them to have some source of income. They receive skill training when inside the correctional homes that can help them gain employment or start a small business.
