                      Michigan female prison inmate release is sorely in need of housing.Some inmates are stuck in prison for as long as six months after their release date due to nowhere to stay. Finding a stable home is a challenge for the Department Of Corrections and what confuses me is the lack of these half-way transition centers which are privately run. This makes it harder to keep track of their progress and unfortunately there is far too many bad halfway homes who run criminal activity or extort money from inmates who are just happy to be out, Iran into this lady she was a mother of a friend and she just got released after 12 years in and it took her three months to find someone to take them in, maybe to us three months is not long but when you’re in a week feels like a year. This problem which Denise has seen this  situation  so many times while she was a member of the state’s prison system, and she doesn't want to see another one of her fellow inmates spend even a day longer than they were sentenced to

                             Denise ‘I am withholding her last name out of respect for her family’ this transition housing in Muskegon Michigan is well needed especially with a prison right in the middle of the city. I guess my question is which I will take interviews and research it at a later time. Well Denise had ask me to help with the research of opening a transition house for women inmates to see if it would work out and be a profitable business. After about a week of research and phone calls I had contact with the city commissioners and prison employees, and I had found that area residents were very supportive of plan ‘I was surprised’ and quite profitable I don’t want to go into details about agreement because it is in progress, but will say the program teaches inmates how to transition from prison life to society. They will teach inmates how to get gob and help them to live and work in society on their own. This program has a length of up to six months but researched shows most moved out from the program by   less than three months. I believe that it is in all societies interests to succeed in this program instead of returning to prison or even worse someone ends up dead. If you have any comments tweet me monte@daydreemerpoet
