PHILADELPHIA INMATE SERVICES AND HEALTH CARE

The Occupational Therapy (OT) Program has been awarded $264,614 by the Jacob and Valeria Langeloth Foundation to help female inmates who have psychiatric disorders improve their ability to manage their healthcare needs once they are out of prison.

The two-year grant will provide for programs and services at the Riverside Correctional Facility, a medium security facility in Northeast Philadelphia. The grant targets female inmates with diagnosed psychiatric disorders to improve their understanding of both their mental and physical healthcare needs, reinforce their skills for maintaining healthy habits and help them learn to negotiate with community health providers upon their release from prison.
