And most important—where can ex-offenders find extra emotional strength during those first few months? Inmates answer these and many other questions:

• How do I handle money and credit?
• What can I do about housing?
• What do I tell potential employers?
• How can I overcome the stigma of being incarcerated?
• What support programs are available?
