Scott

Scott is a single Caucasian male, 31 years old, who left school in the 10th grade. He was recently released from prison after serving a 10-year sentence for a felony drug charge. Because he committed his offense so early in life, he has no work history. This week Scott shares that he is really not sure how he is going to make it outside of prison. He shares his current struggle with locating affordable housing. Due to background checks and his lack of work history, he has had to remain at the halfway house, even though he has met the requirements for full release. He explains that he cannot live at the halfway house any longer because it reminds him of his childhood. When questioned, Scott shares that he lived with his mother off and on in a domestic violence shelter to escape his father. When Scott was in 10th grade, his mother reunited again with his father. Scott dropped out of school and ran away. Eventually he started selling drugs to support himself.
