Identifying and offering treatment to inmates with prior victimization is intended to address immediate mental health needs. Identifying Identifying and offering a follow-up meeting with a mental health practitioner to prior abusers has the potential to reduce future incidents of sexual abuse and create an improved overall sense of safety within a facility.
