Prisoners with mental illness are released from prison into environments wherein they are undertreated and undersupported by our criminal justice, social service, and health systems. Public space and the interactions in those spaces have been shown to have positive effects in other similar populations, including individuals with mental illness. This qualitative study aimed to understand which kinds of connections and spaces have greater capacity to increase or reduce recidivism, hamper or strengthen community integration, encourage or offset social isolation, and influence a sense of ontological security. I recruited 36 ex-prisoners with mental illness and conducted semistructured baseline interviews during which I asked them about both their experiences of public spaces and their interactions in these spaces. Participants were asked to draw maps of their communities and identify public spaces. They identified both spaces of inclusion and exclusion and interactions in those spaces. Ethnographic fieldwork was conducted as a follow-up to these interviews with a subsample of 11 participants to identify and describe public spaces and interactions in those spaces. Phenomenological and template analyses were used to analyze the collected data. Participants described an array of public and private spaces in which they spent time and reconstructed their identities during reentry. In these spaces, participants fostered supportive relationships with intimate and familiar strangers. This form of "stranger support" was juxtaposed against the burdens and risks of reciprocal intimate relationships. Public space and public space interactions can provide support streams to counterbalance the more complex and mixed support of intimate relationships. Providers might consider the utility of familiar and intimate strangers in helping clients to navigate these sometimes risky but potentially fruitful spaces.
