we are supposed to support, welcome and treat them like we used to before they were arrested. We should allow them to feel free and know that they are still part of the community and that nothing has changed. For ,example an accountant who was previously convicted and has served his term is now back home where he is nominated to be the treasurer of a certain church, the congregation must trust that he has reformed so they should back him up and encourage him. They should not discourage or look down on him. The government has to provide them with equipment for projects which they would have mastered when they were in

Also

society needs to be educated they must welcome the former offenders as they have reformed and are now part of us. Companies must employ them according to their qualifications and give them their rightful positions.
