This article will discuss the reality of the Brazilian prison system and whether effective reintegration actually occurs. Brazil currently faces several relevant challenges in relation to managing prisons and, above all, in effectively reintegrating individuals. The precarious environment in which prisoners live makes reintegration difficult. Through explanatory and exploratory research methods, it was possible to conclude that the Law characterizes resocialization projects as a way for prisoners who return to society to prevent them from committing crimes again. Prison as a form of restructuring and punishment, with the reality being the ineffectiveness of public policies, therefore, the prison system does not offer full dignity to the convicted person and humane conditions. And the legal and social aspects of temporary release in light of current legislation, especially after recent regulatory changes. Another extremely important aspect that was addressed is that the prison system becomes vulnerable and ineffective in relation to prisoners, with this reality within prisons being at odds with what is established by law.
