The article is devoted to the analysis of the resocialization potential of the Good Lives Model (GLM) as a theoretical and applied foundation for the successful decriminalization and reintegration of post-penitentiary individuals into society. The paper examines the main principles and mechanisms of the Good Lives Model, emphasizing the design of a prosocial (law-abiding) identity through the fulfillment of eleven classes of primary goods, rather than solely focusing on the elimination of criminogenic needs and risks. It is demonstrated that this strengths-based approach to post-penitentiary individuals overcomes the limitations of traditional “deficit” models. The implementation of this approach is the main goal of the decriminalization of the individual. It transforms an individual from the status of an “ex-convict/offender”, doomed to avoid mistakes when carrying out activities included in their individual program of resocialization, social adaptation, and social rehabilitation, into an active subject ready to take responsibility for their past and actively build their future. Directions for adapting the Good Lives Model to the conditions of domestic post-penitentiary probation are proposed.
