With only 17% of released individuals not rearrested, it could be argued that correctional facilities fail to provide the necessary resources that individuals need for proper rehabilitation and reintegration. Thus, there is a need for alternative jail and prison programming. This article reviews the leading program, cognitive behavioral therapy, and advocates for the integration and use of mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) in carceral settings. Specifically, this article reviews the literature on MBIs and their significance in corrections. Keywords: carceral; cognitive behavioral therapy; mindfulness-based interventions; prison programming; rehabilitation. PMID: 36374943 DOI: 10.1089/jchc.21.05.0044
