Incarcerated women return to their communities from prison has been an enduring focus of interest in Criminal Justice. In this study, the author used academic literature about reentry to investigate the challenges regarding female reentry process and programs in the United States. The results of this study provide strong support for policy implications, which include investing in community resources that strengthen the capacity of neighborhoods to work with this population, the need of making parole supervision more flexible to reduce the risk that women fail to meet their parole requirements, and providing comprehensive services to female offenders after their release. Finally, reentry programs for women offenders in order to provide better and more efficient service features are suggested. Directions for future research are discussed so as to evaluate the different policy initiatives.
