Abstract :
The study focused on One of the widely
recognized objectives of corrections, whether carried out
in prisons or by non-custodial interventions, is the
reintegration of offenders into their own culture and
society. There is a need to assist them with their
reunification with their families and re-entry into the
community to ensure that offenders released from
detention centers, prisons, correctional institutions or
recovery centers re-claim their part and position in
society. Sustaining recovery and achieving reintegration
through the community-based care of ex-offenders is
therefore important.In addition, the commission of
crime is a result or consequence of the interplay of
variables and situations in one's self, the immediate and
greater world, and the decisions and decision-making
processes of one.
A qualitative research approach particularly a
phenomenological design was used in this study., focused
to the community members in barangay Bacayao Sur,
Dagupan City composed of three members coming from
the religious sector, three members from education
sector and three members coming youth sector who have
experienced in participating any rehabilitation programs
for the women deprived of liberty.
Based on the study results, the researcher therefore
concludes that the community perceived women
deprived of liberty as victims of circumstances that lead
them to commit crimes in order for them to survive and
value the relationship to others. These findings show that
community sectors viewed women offenders as less
harmful than men offenders. In this regard, they are
willing to contribute or support the rehabilitation of
women deprived of liberty particularly in education,
employment and healthcare
