This unique and insightful volume follows the outcome of a four-year investigation documenting former offenders' learning experiences and lays out a novel framework for guiding those impacted by the judicial system toward pathways of hope and possibility through community education initiatives. Following a four-year investigation documenting former offenders' learning experiences, the book examines subculture research, transformative learning paradigms, and desistance literature to support a more considered, collaborative, and applied approach to educating former offenders in a post-community context, building personal self-worth and positive societal change through community collaboration. Rooted in an autoethnographic methodology combined with first-hand experience and collaboration between the author and former offenders, the book explores the personal, wider social and political factors that influenced the research subjects' pathways toward crime and substance misuse. The book ultimately suggests alternative approaches to working with, and educating, non-traditional students in a post-release teaching and learning context. Contributing to research into how best to support community reintegration, rehabilitation, and desistance through education, the book will be of interest to researchers, scholars, and postgraduate students involved with post-incarceration education, sociology of education and non-formal education more broadly. Community Psychiatry & Rehabilitation scholars may also find the work of interest.
