The Anishinabe Longhouse program was designed to reduce the high rate of recidivism among Indian males from 39 percent returned to prisons within 3 months following release to 19.5 percent and to increase employment by 40 percent for Indian ex-offenders who are residents of Anishinabe Longhouse. To achieve these goals, the program was organized to provide individual and group counseling, to develop an Indian culture program for residents, and to provide referrals to community agencies for residents. In general, Anishinabe Longhouse is comparable to other halfway houses. However, among six halfway houses studied, Anishinabe Longhouse had the highest proportion of clients who satisfactorily completed residence and the lowest proportion of clients who failed to satisfactorily complete residence. In addition, Anishinabe Longhouse is achieving its employment goals with respect to those clients who satisfactorily complete residence, although it falls short of this goal of reducing returns to correctional institutions. During the first 3 months following release, only 5.2 percent of the clients were returned to prison. Tables and footnotes are included. Supplementary data are appended. (Author summary modified)
