"You Matter" is a culturally relevant, trauma-informed therapeutic support model designed specifically for formerly incarcerated individuals who've served long-term prison sentences. The model offers individualized services by adhering to the three evidence-based principles of risk, need, and responsivity. By using an asset-based approach, the "You Matter" model will help this neglected population cultivate and engage in prosocial relationships and activities, including intimate-domestic relations, parenting, employment, and civic-religious organizations, consequently promoting successful reentry to society, and reducing recidivism.
