Abstract
Introduction: This week we continue to celebrate the past writing of Warren Ferguson for the Thursday Morning Memo/Family Medicine Moments. Warren has long been an advocate for justice-involved individuals and correctional medicine. He reminds all of us that <95% of inmates in state prisons and ~100% of those in local jails will return to the community. We will be the ones to care for them. Correctional health becomes our primary care. We need to understand this issue as well as we understand Veterans health, LGBTQ+ health, and so many other unique aspects of care. This story is one of his success stories, yet a story of many hurdles and setbacks. This story is the story of many.
