This article focuses on the analysis of the determinants of recidivism among individuals who served their sentences while still minors. Based on the results obtained from an empirical study involving staff from institutions that work with previously convicted individuals who have experience in correctional facilities, as well as the inmates themselves (both adults and minors), a socio-demographic profile of minors prone to reoffending after being released from a correctional facility has been created. It has been established that the key factors contributing to recidivism are unemployment, unfavorable financial conditions, and substance abuse. The study concludes that this is a systemic issue rooted in the disconnection between the penitentiary environment and post-penitentiary reality. As a solution, a transition to a model of continuous accompanying resocialization, integrated into a broader social context, is proposed.
