You know, Rehabilitation -- job training, basic math, verbal skills, etc., for those who have proven that they had trouble successfully managing their affairs on the outside.
Many prisoners are going to eventually get out -- when they do it would be best if they cope well.

Yes, rehabilitation rather than just a place to figure out what crimes one will commit when (s)he gets out of the joint.
