Abstract:
This study seeks to understand how twelve women that were incarcerated for illegal drug use were able to successfully reenter their home communities without relapsing. The aim of the study is to enhance our knowledge of how the Chinese culture impacts the recovery process for women coming out of the criminal justice system. In-depth interviews were conducted with twelve previously incarcerated women referred by workers from six municipal drug prevention centers. A thematic coding approach was used to identify main themes utilizing a “multi-level reentry” framework and a “personal recovery perspective.” Because of their overwhelming fear of being discriminated against by the community, participants were reticent in seeking formal help. Instrumental to their success was their ability and self-drive in developing new drug-free social circles and pursuing a sense of accomplishment in life. Service providers should take the influence of culture into consideration when designing services programs for this population.
