The Arizona Department of Corrections is launching a new program aimed at helping incarcerated veterans successfully re-enter society and avoid returning to prison. The “Regaining Honor” program announced Tuesday will be based at the state prison in Tucson but may be expanded to other prisons if it is successful. The program will initially serve about 125 minimum security inmates who are within two years of their release date. They must adhere to strict code of conduct and will be allowed to participate in community projects, flag handling ceremonies and physical training. They also will be offered veteran-specific classes, workshops and release planning supported by government and community groups. Read More. |
