About the Show
“Inmate to Roommate” follows six inmates from across the country as they leave prison behind and move in with everyday people they’ve never met. One of the most significant factors in reducing recidivism is access to housing and this practice has been the subject of re-entry programs aimed at stopping recidivism. Each homeowner has their own motivations for taking in an ex-convict.
In season two, the former inmates will face major challenges to their sobriety, stricter house rules, parole constraints, and shocking accusations from their new roommates. Boundaries will be tested and secrets will be revealed. Can these former inmates integrate back into society, or will this non-traditional housing situation make them feel imprisoned all over again?
