Very glad you asked!
Rehabilitation centers aiming at helping these people and reintegrating them into society instead of punishing them.
I think we lost the story with our prison system, currently it only punishes and that helps no one IMO.
I do not believe people just wake up and decide to do crime, there are usually systemic problems that leaves them no options. If I am starving I will also steal. So punishing me will do nothing there will be other starving people and they will steal too. Understanding these people and the problems and decisions that led them on this path is vital if society is to exist IMO.
The good thing is that some Nordic countries are with a similar viewpoint so there are some attempts at improving the prison system. Article
The bad thing is that america exists and if you read anything on the American prison system they look horrendous, if you read a bit more you will know it's just slavery.
