Prisons

Prisons are facilities designed to securely house individuals convicted of crimes, serving as a form of punishment and a means to protect society. They aim to detain offenders, rehabilitate them when possible, and deter others from committing similar offenses. Prisons vary in size and security levels, from minimum to maximum security, depending on the severity of offenses and risk posed by inmates. They also provide access to healthcare and other services. The goal is balance: maintaining public safety while offering opportunities for offenders to reform and reintegrate into society upon release.
