Self-Guided Substance Use and PTSD Therapy for Jails and Prisons

Drug misuse and dependence in offending populations present significant challenges for public health and justice systems.

The vast majority of people incarcerated in jails, prisons, and detention centers suffer from drug or alcohol addiction, often caused by unaddressed trauma.

Freedom 365 offers an ultra-secure jail or prison issue version of our Online Drug & Alcohol Counseling Alternative, providing this underserved population low cost, self-guided access to Substance Use and PTSD therapy and recovery resources.

Substance Use and the Corrections System

Roughly 75% people arrested have drugs in their system.
65% of inmates fit the criteria for substance abuse disorder.
Up tp 60% of those incarcerated suffer PTSD.
The incarcerated are 7-times more likely to suffer substance use disorder

What’s Worse...
Only A Fraction Are Receiving Any Recovery Help

According to the National Drug Institute, ONLY 11% of those incarcerated will ever actually receive any substance abuse help in their lifetime

After release from prison, many ex-prisoners return to risky alcohol and drug use.  Hazardous drug use after release increases risk of reoffending soon after release, increasing recidivism rates.

High rates of psychiatric comorbidity among prisoners with PTSD, and links to aggressive behavior, provide further support for the need for trauma-informed recovery approaches in prisons.

Freedom 365 reduces both substance use and PTSD rates, while at the same time reducing recidivism.

Substance Use in Corrections is Costing Tax Payers

It costs between $36,000.00 and $56.000.00 a year to keep someone locked up. The vast majority of people incarcerated in jails, prisons, and detention centers suffer from drug or alcohol addiction. Statistics prove that between 75% to 90 % of jailed inmates were high when they committed their offense. Unfortunately, the prison system is not equipped to meet the rehabilitation needs of substance users. Unless therapy or counseling is addressed while incarcerated, the prisoner is ill equipped to re-enter society. VRS Freedom 365 provides a self-guided substance abuse and PTSD therapy program for jail and prison inmates.

Addiction and Trauma counseling for inmates is a necessity.

Addressing these issues benefits not just the inmate themselves, but the prison system and the population at large.  Substance users have a recidivism rate of 68% within 3 years following release. Solving this issue would save the US taxpayers millions. Beyond the monetary cost is the societal toll addiction and incarceration has on families and social services.

Treat Substance Use and Reduce Recidivism
