Description
Summary:Post-penitentiary assistance is a form of social support for persons leaving penal institutions. Such support enables adaptation to the non-detention conditions and allows satisfying basic needs until gaining full independence. There is a number of institutions that support former prisoners and their families in a non-prison environment after serving their sentence. Special attention should be paid to post-penitentiary care homes, which offer a safe place to stay for homeless persons leaving prison. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the specifics of the Pro Domo Integration Centre, which is the only post-penitentiary house in Małopolska for people leaving penitentiary institutions. In addition, in this paper I will refer to the results of my own study on the effectiveness of post-penitentiary interactions rendered by Pro Domo Integration Centre in relation to the opinions of the house's inhabitants.
