Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper is designed to elicit an innovative way of counseling that reintegrates African Americans who have been convicted of nonviolent crimes back into mainstream society. Current methods of reintegrating ex-offenders into society through work release, furloughs, and halfway houses have had mixed results. This paper proposes the development of a house designed to counsel ex-offenders as an alternative method for rein-tegration, The counseling ex-offenders' house is designed to serve as a support group instilling cultural and educational values, social networking, and occupational opportunities to eradicate criminal behaviors and improve some of the negative images of African Americans.
