Rehabilitative Technology Solutions
The Division of Rehabilitative Programs (DRP) continues to make rehabilitation and education beneficial for the incarcerated individuals while maintaining cost efficiency for the state of California. One solution is through technology.

DRP has developed a way to break those barriers by implementing new initiatives over the last couple years.

A key benefit of the ARCAID application is to assist as a vital resource for those releasing from incarceration out into society and to ultimately serve as a nexus in reducing recidivism by providing access to the services they need to succeed.
The ARCAID application is available in desktop and mobile viewing options.
