What is recidivism?
Recidivism is one of the most fundamental concepts in criminal justice. It refers to a person's relapse into criminal behavior, often after the person receives sanctions or undergoes intervention for a previous crime. Recidivism is measured by criminal acts that resulted in rearrest, re conviction or return to prison with or without new sentence during a 3 year period following the prisoner's released. (according to NIJ 2018) In 2018 a study showed 5 out of 6 former prisoners were re-arrested within 3 years of their release. (NIJ 2018)
