Abstrakt: There has been a dramatic increase in the numbers of women incarcerated with a significant proportion of these women being identified as recidivists. Attention is turning toward the role that community transition plays in this revolving door syndrome. This paper identifies and criticallyreviews community transition treatment models in the fields of corrections, human services, and mental health for their usefulness in helping female inmates successfully reintegrate into their communities.
