Answer: Prison is not typically ideal for treatment programs because the environment is not set up to help individuals succeed in treatment. Prisons have unwritten rules among inmates, gang activity/violence, non-gang related violence, drug use, sexual violence, and many other factors that make the environment not ideal for those seeking treatment. A better environment would include education, counseling, and healthy surroundings that include other individuals with the same treatment goals as their peers.
Hope this helps!
