MDRC

Description

Disturbingly, one of every two 16- to 18-year-olds incarcerated at Rikers Island jail will return within a year of discharge. By providing cognitive behavioral services at Rikers, ABLE aims to equip these teenagers with the social and emotional skills to help make better life choices when they leave jail, hopefully leading, in turn, to improved life outcomes, a reduction in the recidivism rate, financial savings to government, and eventually returns to private investors.
