Read More »Solitary confinement is a common practice in prisons and jails across the United States and in some other countries worldwide. Solitary confinement involves physical isolation, meaning that a person has minimal interaction with other people. According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS), almost 20% of incarcerated people in the U.S. experienced solitary confinement from 2011–2012. In this article, we explore the effects of solitary confinement on health and well-being and discuss some of the criticisms of the practice. What is solitary confinement?

The UN’s “Mandela Rules” provide guidance on the treatment of incarcerated people worldwide. These rules prohibit the use of indefinite or prolonged solitary confinement of more than 15 days and advise that prisons and jails only use it as a last resort. They also prohibit isolation for people with disabilities. However, not every state in the U.S. follows these rules. A 2015 report found that in Illinois, 85% of the incarcerated people who had lived in isolation in the past year had done so because of minor offenses, such as using abusive language. In general, the criminal justice system in the U.S. uses solitary confinement more widely and for longer periods than other countries. On a given day, up to 80,000 people are in isolation in state or federal prisons. This figure does not include those in isolation in jails and juvenile detention facilities. The National Commission on Correctional Health Care, to which those working in the prison healthcare profession belong, have endorsed the Mandela rules. The American Public Health Association also recommend limiting the use of solitary confinement. The following sections go into more detail on the criticisms of solitary confinement.

Due to the effect that isolation has on people, it can also lead to them becoming more violent and unpredictable. Such behavioral changes may increase the number or intensity of assaults on staff and other incarcerated people. They may also make it more likely that the person will engage in illegal behavior or experience isolation-related adjustment problems when they reenter society. Systemic racism According to a 2018 analysis from the Association of State Correctional Administrators and Yale Law School, people of color are overrepresented in solitary confinement. The authors report that Black people account for a higher percentage of those in isolation than of those in the general prison population. The same is also true for Hispanic males. By contrast, white people, both male and female, are underrepresented in comparison with the general prison population. Mental ill health In a growing number of states, it is illegal to keep people with mental illness in solitary confinement. However, the American Psychological Association report that people with impaired mental health are still disproportionately represented in solitary confinement. As isolation often worsens mental health conditions, this also makes people more difficult to care for and less likely to adjust when they reenter society.
