The Program also includes a full continuum of transitional programs, including evidence-based substance abuse treatment, preparation for inmates released on parole, and community-based continuing care upon parole. Parolees who did not receive in-prison treatment are also eligible for community-based residential and outpatient treatment.

The Program also provides mental health services/treatment to parolees though the Department's Parole Outpatient Clinics. The objective of these services is to ensure public safety and to reduce recidivism through the stabilization and monitoring of the parolees' mental health issues.
