Veteran Inmates in Maryland is a service project on behalf of the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services (DPSCS) Office of Transition Services. Dr. Flower conducted an analysis of a survey administered in February 2013 of over 250 inmates identified as Veterans, and housed in 25 DPSCS facilities. The objective of the survey was to describe the inmate veteran population, confirm veteran status, deployment history, identify benefits received, housing plans upon release, and ascertain the inmate's needs upon release. A second data source was a data extract from DPSCS information systems which provided institutional data, risk assessment history, and additional demographic data. The report is available here.
