The Point: Rehabilitation not incarceration Long Bay 

In the second story we learn that Samuel has moved to Sydney’s Long bay Gaol. There he has become involved with the Never Going Back program.
The program, a justice reinvestment initiative, helps to break the prison cycle by teaching inmates the skills to adjust to life on the outside and never go back to gaol. The story follows Samuel as he rises each morning to travel to a gym in Redfern. We also film him inside Long Bay where he tells us about his efforts to reform and to avoid going back to prison. Significantly he has a message for young offenders when he tells us that “don’t think coming to gaol makes you cool or tough … because at the end of the day it makes you stupid and weak.”
Never Going Back is a joint initiative between Redfern Police, Long Bay gaol, TAFE NSW, the Department of Corrective Services and the Tribal Warrior Association.
