Inside Josh Duggar’s new prison with ‘very unique’ wellness program

Inmates, including Duggar, who reportedly begged his wife for intimate photos while behind bars, are immediately given a psychological screening upon admission.

Duggar was previously involved in reported counseling following allegations that he had engaged in inappropriate sexual behavior with his sister and family friends. In 2015, an uncovered police report alleged that Duggar admitted to “acting inexcusably” in incidents from 2002-2003. His parents admitted that they had learned of his behavior and disciplined him at home, but when the behavior against relatives and family friends continued, his parents claimed that they had sent him away from home for so-called counseling treatment.

The intake program is intended to “gather information regarding past and current mental health and substance abuse disorders, mental health care needs and to assess the inmate’s current psychological functioning.”

However, according to the guide, the medical facility does not offer a treatment program for offenders. Instead, “a ‘Step-Down’ program is expected to be established to assist with mental health needs in the future.”

Those who could benefit from an offender treatment program “may be eligible for transfer to another facility,” and they are encouraged to submit a request to staff members.

No word yet on why Duggar was taken to the medical facility or if he is receiving counseling regarding his mental health.
