Abstract

This study examines data gathered by the Cincinnati VA from 2004 to 2008 with the goal of facilitating reentry services for incarcerated veterans. Focusing on imprisoned and released military veteran sex offenders, this article summarizes self-reported assessment findings from 42 veterans who agreed to receive reentry outreach contact. Characteristics assessed include demographics, VA enrollment, homeless episodes, medical and mental health status, reentry needs, and other items. As a whole, the data highlight multiple psychosocial factors and other problems that suggest a need for reentry outreach and services. A collaborative program to provide services for formerly incarcerated veteran sex offenders in Cincinnati, Ohio, is described.
