open prisons
Open prisons are correctional facilities that allow inmates more freedom compared to traditional prisons. In these facilities, prisoners often have fewer restrictions on their movements and can participate in work programs, education, and community activities. The goal is to prepare inmates for reintegration into society by promoting responsibility and independence.
In open prisons, security measures are generally less stringent, and inmates may live in dormitory-style accommodations rather than cells. This environment encourages rehabilitation and helps reduce recidivism rates, as inmates learn to manage their behavior in a more relaxed setting while still being held accountable for their actions.
