About Liberty Management Services – Philadelphia
Liberty Management Services in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, prepares offenders for the outside by equipping them for real change. The facility provides comprehensive behavioral health and correctional services aimed at fostering personal transformation and community safety. They’re accredited by the American Correctional Association.
The center benefits both incarcerated individuals and the broader prison system. What stood out to me is that the program helps pre-release inmates and parolees successfully in society.
I like that this offers a cost-effective and economical alternative to incarceration which reduces overcrowding and recidivism. This is a drug-free environment where residents can work on modifying behavioral patterns and recovering from addictions that may have contributed to their incarceration.
Intensive case management and support systems are integral to the program. This helps residents rebuild family and social connections while acquiring the education and skills necessary to lead productive lives.
They use a holistic treatment approach to address many areas of your life affected by addiction. They look at addiction from multiple areas such as social, psychological, and financial. This allows them to help you develop the skills and abilities necessary for recovery.
Your treatment plan will include cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational enhancement therapy, and client centered therapy. Depending on your needs, you may see that art therapy was included in your treatment plan. They also use role playing and reality therapy.
What stood out to me is how deeply committed they are to the neighborhoods they serve. They employ staff primarily from local zip codes or community recommended candidates.
The center contributes to the local community by providing facilities such as a community center, gym, and running track. Residents also participate in community service projects such as acting as crossing guards and cleaning vacant lots.
