When ex-offenders are released from a penal institution, they often need help with mental health concerns. This is especially true considering the trauma they may have experienced while incarcerated. Below are some resources to help with these experiences.

Many people have traumatic experiences while in a government facility. The government does not get them the proper help they need because they are not looked at as humans.

NAMI, The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), and Atlanta Consulting and Psychological Services are all places that offer mental health assistance to anyone in need.
