People leaving prisons face a number of barriers in the process of their social readaptation, making it difficult to exist in an open environment and fulfill specific social roles. A stay in a prison results in the prisonization of the prisoner and disturbs the sense of agency by limiting the possibility of making decisions and responsibility for them in various spheres of their life. Learned helplessness develops. Convicts are often stigmatized by society. This situation makes it difficult, sometimes impossible to return to functioning in an open environment, and to adapt again to independent living in society. Such persons require constructive and activating support in the process of their social reintegration, based on the use of their own potential, resources and possibilities. The applicable law (including the Act on Social Assistance) regulates the issue of providing support to people leaving prison in the form of cash benefits and non-material assistance, basing its operation on the principle of subsidiarity. However, a problem that is still relevant and discussed by academics and practitioners in the field of social work and social rehabilitation is the effectiveness of aid and activation measures and their impact on the course of the aid process and the related social reintegration of the former prisoner.
