Substance abuse has become a major problem in our nation.

This can lead to infractions and solitary confinement. In addition, 51% of incarcerated individuals, whether they received mental health treatment or not, are likely to experience recidivism (Pflueger et al., 2015).

I felt empathy and a sense of hopelessness for these clients as they were seeking treatment in order to get help and yet …
