resocializes
Restores community bonds
Resocializes means to socialize again or anew, typically helping someone readjust to social norms and expectations after a period of isolation or institutionalization.
The term appears most often in contexts involving prisoners reentering society, patients leaving long-term care facilities, or individuals recovering from experiences that disrupted their ability to function in ordinary social settings.
The program resocializes offenders through job training and community service.
