Abstract

Ethical debates over rehabilitating prisoners have been in discussion since imprisonment began. Rehabilitating rrisoners is meant to restore a person who is incarcerated for some crime back to a beneficial life. The interpretation of rehabilitation is that if anyone commits a crime, it does not necessarily prove him to be a permanent criminal and there is always a possibility that they might quit those illegal acts and get back to normal life and become a functional member of society. Researchers have shown that these rehabilitation programs have proved to be practically handy in bringing out something better for the prisoners themselves and upright for society. Rehabilitation programs help to comprehend societal behavior and psychological needs. This piece of literature has been adopted through a comprehensive data analysis approach. Data regarding successful rehabilitation services has been gathered, including the world's successful practices. The purpose is to make the scientific, social, healthcare and justice-associated public aware of the positives of rehabilitation on the behavior of people. The need is to ensure the implementation of rehabilitation programs on a wider scale in countries where punishment is preferred to control crimes.
