There are two types of barriers that can hinder an excon's successful re-entry into society. There are those created by public policy and public attitude. However, in too many cases, there are also those barriers he creates for himself by lacking a plan, the right attitude, or the personal commitment to see it through. "How to Do Good After Prison" is a practical guide of advice, insight, and motivation to help ex-prisoners overcome the barriers and succeed after prison.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book on how to support your loved one after prison and help for them to know how to stay out.

The editing of this book is terrible as well as the spelling (get a new editor). The content of the book is very helpful. I encourage you to send one to the facility your loved one is in. Order one for yourself in order to understand what to expect at release and how the released inmate feels from his or her side.and how to give helpful support. release from prison after 5 years or more can have culture shock, and PTS involved. Be prepared how to handle this so they won't go back.

My Boyfriend who is in prison for some time now, read this book. He loved it and he used the word insightful. He said he wished he read it before he went in. I think it helped him and will be very useful when he gets out and I think it helped him changed his way of thinking. He has passed it along to other inmates and they have enjoyed reading it too! I suggest sending this book to someone who has a love one in prison. It's worth it!
