OF LIBERTY WITH INTELLECTUAL AND/OR PSYCHOSOCIAL DISABILITIES IN LAW AND PRACTICE
92
Additionally, interviews with persons with intellectual
and/or psychosocial disabilities, who formerly had served
their prison sentences, revealed that a significant lack of
needed supports exist for re-socialisation, and in general,
at the end of serving prison sentences: one person
shared that they ended up being homeless for several
months following leaving the prison; and another person
said that the only support they received as they were
leaving the prison was a small amount of money to cover
their public transport fee.
