Abstract

This chapter reviews the literature on supports and intervention for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) leaving prison. It discusses the intrapersonal and subsistence conditions of people with IDD leaving prison, identifying specific individual issues related to cognition and behaviour, as well as social influences regarding housing, income, and employment conditions. For ex‐prisoners with IDD, the interplay of cognitive and behavioural challenges with physical and mental health conditions are important considerations in community reintegration. The chapter provides a brief summary of the literature relating to individual conditions that have an impact on the reintegration of offenders with IDD. Support conditions include social support, disability service support, and criminal justice intervention for ex‐prisoners with IDD are reviewed. People with IDD appeared to transition into living arrangements based on factors of convenience, such as the availability of family members to take them in, rather than by any standardized risk assessments.

支持智力及发展障碍人士出狱

本章回顾了有关智力和发育障碍者出狱支持和干预的文献。它讨论了IDD患者离开监狱时的人际关系和生存条件，确定了与认知和行为有关的具体个人问题，以及对住房、收入和就业条件的社会影响。对于患有IDD的前囚犯，认知和行为挑战与身心健康状况的相互作用是重新融入社区的重要考虑因素。本章简要概述了与影响缺碘症罪犯重新融入社会的个别情况有关的文献。支持条件包括社会支持，残疾服务支持，刑事司法干预前囚犯与IDD审查。缺碘症患者似乎是根据便利因素(如是否有家庭成员接纳他们)过渡到生活安排，而不是根据任何标准化的风险评估。
