1(800) 615-1067The relapse rate for drug addiction after jail can vary depending on several factors, including the type of drug, the severity of the addiction, the duration of the addiction, and the availability of support and treatment. However, according to research, the relapse rate for drug addiction after jail can be as high as 80 percent in the first year after release. This high rate of relapse is often due to a lack of access to treatment and support services, as well as the challenges of reintegrating into society after incarceration. It’s important to provide individuals with addiction with access to comprehensive treatment and support services, including medication-assisted treatment, counseling, and peer support, to help manage their addiction and reduce the risk of relapse after jail.
