Yet, the mechanisms through which incarceration lead to successful rehabilitation remain largely unknown. This paper finds participation in programs while incarcerated significantly reduce recidivism. result is entirely driven by inmates whose risk and needs were evaluated a widely used assessment tool identifying their criminogenic needs. For this group, we estimate these reduces recidivism about 9 percentage points within three years following Our results suggest targeting crucial for rehabilitation. We also find considerable heterogeneous program treatment effects: with high overall score, or who exhibit procriminal attitudes, benefit little if at all from participation. investigate stability of effect coefficients conclude they unlikely suffer an omitted variable bias.
