COVID-19 has been spreading rapidly in the United States prison systems. The best way to reduce the close-quarter spread is to release as many inmates as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

COVID S<\/b>preading Throughout<\/b> Prisons<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the United States we have seen rapid growth of COVID-19 within prisons since March of 2020<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>due to the high\u00a0<\/span>density of people<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>confined in such<\/span>\u00a0small quarters.<\/span> According to The Marshall Project<\/span>1<\/span><\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0new<\/span>\u00a0COVID<\/span>–<\/span>19<\/span>\u00a0cases among prisoners reached an all-time high in early August<\/span>,\u00a0<\/span>with<\/span>\u00a0132,677 cas<\/span>es reported among<\/span>\u00a0US<\/span>\u00a0prisoners since the outbreak.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>COVID-19 cases in US federal and state prisons were estimated to be\u00a0<\/span>5.5\u00a0<\/span>times higher than the general public<\/span>. The death rate<\/span>s<\/span>\u00a0w<\/span>ere<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>3<\/span>\u00a0times higher for inmates than the general public2<\/span><\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I<\/span>nmates<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>are not the only people at risk<\/span>\u2014<\/span>t<\/span>here\u00a0<\/span>is also the prison staff<\/span>\u00a0and general public<\/span>\u00a0to consider.\u00a0<\/span>Keeping<\/span>\u00a0the\u00a0<\/span>prisons at\u00a0<\/span>full capacity<\/span>\u00a0is putting the general public at risk because the staff goes in and out of the prisons daily.\u00a0<\/span>This<\/span>\u00a0increases the risk of spreading the illness\u00a0<\/span>outside of the prison to\u00a0<\/span>family members of the staff\u00a0<\/span>and\u00a0<\/span>the broader<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>communit<\/span>y<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Releasing Prisoners Early to Stop Spread<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Voters within the United States have responded\u00a0<\/span>favorably<\/span>\u00a0to releasing inmates early to reduce the spread of COVID-193<\/span>. <\/span>The reduction of jail and prison populations can be achieved by releasing people within six months of their sentences, releasing prisoners with<\/span>\u00a0underlying<\/span>\u00a0health\u00a0<\/span>conditions<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0and<\/span>\u00a0sending\u00a0<\/span>fewer<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>people into jail unnecessarily<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

U<\/span>S<\/span>\u00a0leaders<\/span>\u00a0have not\u00a0<\/span>always been in favor of\u00a0<\/span>releasing prisoners early4<\/span><\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>But<\/span>\u00a0COVID-19<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>being\u00a0<\/span>cultivat<\/span>ed<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>within prisons\u00a0<\/span>poses\u00a0<\/span>a higher risk to the public<\/span>\u00a0than\u00a0<\/span>releasing the\u00a0<\/span>inmates<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>into monitored parole.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>L<\/span>arge scale releases have been a common pattern<\/span>\u00a0in U.S. history<\/span>, and\u00a0<\/span>have no<\/span>t\u00a0<\/span>resulted in\u00a0<\/span>increased crime rates<\/span>. I<\/span>t\u00a0<\/span>all depends on<\/span>\u00a0releasing prisoners responsibly and effectively.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To effectively combat\u00a0<\/span>virus spread among inmates, certain policies should be followed<\/span>. Incoming prisoners must be screened and isolated accordingly before\u00a0<\/span>entering the prison5<\/span><\/span>. Identifying cases rapidly to limit the spread\u00a0<\/span>should be<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>a common protocol from now on.\u00a0<\/span>Authorities need to\u00a0<\/span>immediately\u00a0<\/span>release prisoners\u00a0<\/span>that don\u2019t pose a risk to society or that have underlying health conditions that COVID-19 could make worse.\u00a0<\/span>The COVID-19 pandemic within prison systems needs to be sorted out before it results in mass amounts of prisoners being transferred to public hospitals and overwhelming the system.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>By\u00a0<\/span>preventing\u00a0<\/span>this additional strain on our a<\/span>lready limited resources, protecting our communities, and saving lives,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>r<\/span>eleasing\u00a0<\/span>prisoners early\u00a0<\/span>serves the<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>public\u2019s\u00a0<\/span>greater<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>good<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Entry into S<\/b>ociety<\/b>\u00a0in\u00a0<\/b>the H<\/b>eight of a Pandemic<\/b><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Prisoner reentry poses a\u00a0<\/span>challenge under the best of circumstances, but especially during a pandemic<\/span>. Job security is at an\u00a0<\/span>all-time\u00a0<\/span>low, health care systems are overwhel<\/span>med, and<\/span>\u00a0former inmates\u00a0<\/span>find themselves (once again) isolated from the outside <\/span>world<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>To adjust to these challenges,\u00a0<\/span>o<\/span>rganizations\u00a0<\/span>that<\/span>\u00a0help prisoners reenter society are now accomplishing this digitally6<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>In these unprecedented times f<\/span>ormer\u00a0<\/span>in<\/span>mates<\/span>\u00a0are struggling to\u00a0<\/span>acquire<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>housing, food, medical services, and jobs<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0Implementing case management technology into\u00a0<\/span>health and social services organizations has never been more vital<\/span>\u00a0in preventing people from falling through the cracks<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Implementing<\/b> Community Care Coordination to Assist Former Inmates<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

T<\/span>o coordinate successful transitions and care for individuals leaving prison, states and localities need a comprehensive, case management platform for prisoner re-entry that can\u00a0<\/span>promote\u00a0<\/span>collaboration and data sharing<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>across multiple care providers and databases<\/span>, better enabling\u00a0<\/span>health and human services organizations<\/span>\u00a0to connect individuals to\u00a0<\/span>critical<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>health and support services.\u00a0<\/span>The\u00a0<\/span>ClientTrack<\/span><\/a>\u00a0case management platform provides the\u00a0<\/span>tools<\/span>\u00a0needed<\/span>\u00a0to track and manage outcomes for parolees\u00a0<\/span>to prevent recidivism<\/span>\u00a0and improve their overall well<\/span>being.\u00a0<\/span>ClientTrack<\/span>\u2019s<\/span>\u00a0flexib<\/span>ility\u00a0<\/span>translates into a platform that can be\u00a0<\/span>scaled or pared to meet the needs\u00a0<\/span>of communities of any size and programs of any complexity<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Community care coordination is a vital tool in the success of any prisoner reentry process<\/a>. When health and social services organizations\u00a0<\/span>can<\/span>\u00a0coordinate programs, share data, and communicate effectively, it allows them to identify and address the needs of each individual client.\u00a0<\/span>ClientTrack<\/span>\u00a0provides the tools necessary to power\u00a0<\/span>a\u00a0<\/span>holistic<\/span>\u00a0approach so that former offenders can have access to\u00a0<\/span>all of<\/span>\u00a0the resources that they need to rebuild their lives, lowering their risk of recidivism, and keeping communities safer\u00a0<\/span>from COVID-19 outbreaks<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
