Develop new habits for success with 99
days of smart action planning!
e-entering the Free World can be scary for those who lack clear goals, marketable
skills, and a strong support system. During their first weeks out, many ex-offenders
R struggle to find food, housing, employment, transportation, and assistance with
the day-to-day realities of their new “freedom”. Unfortunately, many don’t make it
beyond the first 99 days – they violate their terms of release, get rearrested and return
to life in a cage.
Most ex-offenders need help with their re-entry challenges. It’s something few can
do on their own through sheer willpower or wishful thinking. But they first need to
help themselves by specifying realistic goals, developing a targeted plan, and then
translating their goals and plan into daily activities for achieving long-term success.
Offering a helping hand, this handy weekly planning and implementation journal as-
sists ex-offenders in dealing with key transition issues during their first 99 days, or 14
weeks, in the Free World. Addressing the major hopes and fears of ex-offenders, this
upbeat resource focuses on the nuts-and-bolts of implementation. It requires users to:
• specify three major objectives each week
• identify specific supporting daily activities
• anticipate related outcomes
• evaluate their progress at the end of each week
• make key adjustments for the next week
