40 points Some scholars have argued that the issues that ex-convicts face contributes to recidivism and high crime rates. Do you think that ex-convicts should receive help? Why or why not? If so, what do you think should be done to help them re-enter society? If not, what should be done to keep them from committing another crime?

Ex convicts should receive help after they complete their prison sentence because after they're out of prison they may not have anyone to reach out to. Which will put them in a situation where they do not have a home to stay in or money to support themselves. They will become homeless, and which sometimes the ex convict will commit a crime again. Why? Prison got food to eat, a bed to sleep on and some entertainment. Some choose prison over homelessness. This cause higher recidivism among ex convicts. In order to tackle this issue, programs should be established to help ex convict adapt to society. Programs that educate them on finances, and how to be a part of communities. programs that provide them some type of financial help, and that they are willing to improve themselves.
