This paper describes postrelease support offered ex-offenders by the Florida community rehabilitation program, Transition, Inc.

Abstract

Transition II, Inc. operates in Miami, Fla., and its main concern is to help ex-offenders in the resocialization process by offering them moral as well as financial support. It uses volunteer community citizens, a board of directors, and eight committees to help ex-offenders reenter society. It is recommended that community involvement in Transition, Inc's program be increased and that local and State funding be sought to supplement the program's Federal funding. Seven references are provided. (ERIC abstract modified)
