other drugs but also their unhealthy lifestyles. Viewers will

tify triggers, avoid relapse, and ensure that core beliefs and

From Prison to Home
Ex-convicts face formidable odds, and for
African-Americans, conditions are usually
even more difficult. This documentary traces
the experiences of four black ex-inmates over
the course of a year, focusing on their chal-
lenges with employment, housing, addiction,
and reconnecting with family — as well as their participation
in the nontraditional African American Program for parolees.
Richard, a 36-year-old crack addict, has spent 12 years in and
out of the system. Arthur, 45, has been arrested 13 times.
Calvin, 49, has served 18 months for drug possession and
burglary. And 37-year-old Randy, emerging for the first time
after a 16-year murder sentence, is intent on going to college.
The parole officers who work with these men are also inter-
viewed. 71 minutes.
