Three Potential Reforms to Reduce Recidivism Rates in Taiwan's Correctional System:

1. Personalized case management

This proposes to adopt a more personalized approach to supervising parole, adjusting requirements and assistance based on the specific needs and risks of each offender. Recognizing that a one-size-fits-all system may not effectively meet the diverse needs of offenders, this approach could achieve better results.

2. Improved rehabilitation programs

Strengthen rehabilitation programs so that the root causes of criminal behavior can be addressed, such as treatment for substance abuse, mental health counseling, and vocational training. By tackling underlying issues contributing to criminal behavior, doing so could lower the chances of reoffending and support successful reintegration into society.

3. Community engagement and support networks

This suggests encouraging community participation in the rehabilitation process, promoting local support networks and resources to aid individuals on parole during their transition back into society. Establishing connections within the community creates a support system, lowering the sense of isolation that previous offenders might experience and increasing the likelihood of successful reintegration.
