GTL understands that education alone is not the answer to reducing recidivism. Inmates often have underlying issues that fuel their crimes. A June 2017 Report by the Bureau of Justice Statistics found that 58% of state prisoners and 63% of jail inmates met the criteria for drug dependence or abuse. Yet less than 30% of them participated in a drug treatment program.
