Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Prison the Entry Level Program? The Long View, Your 42nd Consultation William R. Yee M.D., J.D., Copyright Applied for Sept. 19th, 2023 - William Yee - Bog

I view correctional facilities as the best place to start programs addressing diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Correctional facilities house mentally retarded and brain damaged individuals with impaired frontal lobe executive functions. The ability to grasp and process abstract and complex concepts necessary for independent functioning in the community is grossly impaired.
This in large part provides the basis for recidivism, return to prison for repeated crimes.
This population needs neuropsychiatric testing to inform the probation officers and parole boards a rational basis for restoration programs that will successfully return this population to communities without return to correctional facilities.
Very often this population has multiple crimes prior to the first incarceration despite extensive engagement with mental health services and the criminal justice system.
