Abstract
In order to prevent recidivism of ex-offenders, this paper needs to provide various ways of helping out-of-pocket-survivors adapt to the local community. One of solutions is the employment link through appropriate vocational training. A recent study from the US Department of Justice found that about 60% of ex-offenders unemployed for one year after their release. In such a situation, the employment possibility of ex-offenders with disabilities may even lower, so called "Dual Barriers". The purpose of this study is to present strategies to reduce the recidivism rate and increase the employment possibility of ex-offenders with disabilities presenting the cases in in the United States through literature reviews related.
