	*'''Community Treatment Services (CTS)''' provides continued care to inmates who have been released and put into Residential Reentry Centers or on Home Confinement.

	*'''SAMHSA''' has published Treatment Improvement Protocol (TIP) titled, "Substance Abuse Treatment: For Adults in the Criminal Justice System." In addressing the need for trauma-informed care, the report distinguishes between historic trauma as root cause of criminality and trauma associated with incarceration. The panel that made the report, reached consensus on the recommendation that in-prison treatment address both the trauma of the incarceration itself and the prison culture that conflicts with treatment goals. Since prisons can be violent, harsh, and psychologically damaging, incarcerated people live in an environment that is both depersonalizing and dehumanizing. When added to the social stigma associated with incarceration, this may result in a sense of hopelessness and powerlessness, as well as deeply internalized shame and guilt -- highlighting the need to concurrently treat for both substance use and mental health. <ref>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK572935/</ref>

Overcrowding is a leading factor as to why inmates with drug dependency problems are not enrolled in these programs. This report indicates that over 50,000 inmates were on waiting lists to enter drug treatment programs. In addition to overcrowding, staff shortages and limited resources are part of the enrollment issues in drug treatment programs. <ref>https://www.alec.org/article/drug-treatment-programs-of-the-federal-bureau-of-prisons-exist-but-need-more-availability/</ref>
