| dc.description.abstract | The rise in prison committals is leading to an increased number of people with complex needs returning to their communities in need of reintegration support. There is much debate in Ireland today over the increasing problematic drug and alcohol use amongst our younger generations. The link between substance misuse and crime rates has been well documented. However, there is a void in the research on the use of community initiatives to support people in substance misuse recovery and desistance. There are a number of community-based initiatives funded by the Department of Justice and Equality that endeavour to support ex-prisoners to reintegrate into society successfully and reduce their risk of re-offending, one such initiative is Churchfield Community Trust (CCT). This study aims to contribute to the research available to learn from the founding members and past participants of CCT on what interventions and supports are beneficial to supporting people in their transitional journey. CCT hope to use these findings to determine how they could better support the reintegration process and the desistance from crime. | en |
