Abstract/Summary
The goal of the study is to compare two types of ex-offenders who rejoined mainstream society, and who returned to NBP compound in terms of background profile, crime history, institutionalization, and reintegration experiences. The purposive sampling method was employed in the selection of the subjects. Interview guides were used to collect data. Study shows that the first group experienced family support, a satisfactory occupation, community acceptance and strong spiritual guidance, whereas the second group had less family support, lower income earnings and ambush threats from community. Spiritual guidance plays a significant part in the attitude of the ex-offender towards reintegrating with society. Ex-offender's feeling of belonginess to society is a factor that indicates success in realigning with community. Family support facilities successful re-entry to society.
