Both retributive and rehabilitative views are present in US public policy regarding individuals convicted of drug-related felonies, and the impact of these policies on women is examined in this article. While federal aid program policies are frequently punitive and restrictive, criminal justice policies often focus on treatment and increased access to housing. Implications for women and families are discussed and recommendations made
