Abstract
The article aims to present the determinants of the process of social readaptation in the narratives of ex-prisoners from the “Pro Domo” Integration Center in Krakow. The analysis will cover the statements of seven ex-prisoners regarding factors which favor and block effective readaptation. The narratives of former convicts are dominated by concern for social functioning, with a special emphasis on rebuilding, if possible, family ties, taking up work and independent living. It is also important to overcome addiction to intoxicants. Despite the fact that the respondents experience everyday difficulties, they make the effort to return to society and set up a life of freedom. This is facilitated by staying in a halfway house, which represents an opportunity for them. In the conclusions, the author presents recommendations for resocialization practice. Assisted readaptation provides a much greater chance of effective social readaptation than leaving the ex-prisoners to themselves.
