About the Series

This empowering set of videos helps reduce recidivism and takes offenders step-by-step through the transition from incarceration to community integration. Candid interviews with professionals and ex-offenders offer a unique perspective on what offenders should expect to face throughout their journey from incarceration back into society.

Offenders learn what steps to take prior to their release, what actions are essential to a smooth and successful transition, how to prevent relapses, overcome barriers, and more.

Countdown to Freedom is available in two versions: one that speaks to male offenders and one that speaks to female offenders. Though they must overcome similar barriers, men and women will face different challenges throughout their transition. Customized for a specific audience, these videos address the unique needs of male and female viewers.

For some offenders the day of release can be one of the most terrifying events of the entire incarceration period. This video discusses what offenders should expect on the day of their release and the actions they can take in their first 30 to 60 days after release to increase their changes of making a successful transition from incarceration to society. Former offenders offer guidance on how to plan ahead, surround oneself with positive people, and move toward community integration.
