Session Submission Type: Complete Thematic Panel
Objective: The four papers in this thematic panel focus on people returning to the community after prison and criminal record holders more broadly. The papers use theories related to stigma, carceral citizenship and desistance to understand employment prospects and community support realities for people with criminal records and their family members, as well as ways to increase job opportunities and support from the general public.
Data/Methods: The papers use a variety of quantitative methods and statistical models, including survey experiments, mixed-methods, and analysis of longitudinal data.
Results: Results from the four papers will illustrate some of the barriers to employment and community support for people with criminal records. We will also present possible mitigation strategies.
Conclusions/Implications: We will discuss the policy and theoretical implications regarding reintegration and reentry, as well as possible next steps for future researchers who are interested in this topic.
