Abstract: The general objective of this research was to assess the effect of rehabilitation programs on the recidivism rate among the youth in Rwanda. Specifically, the study assessed the effect of counseling services on recidivism rate among youth in Gasabo District, determined the effect of vocational training programs on the recidivism rate among youth in Gasabo District and examined the effect of aftercare programs on recidivism rate among youth in Gasabo District. The study was guided by Social Learning Theory, Anomie Theory, and Recidivism and Reintegration Theory. The study used descriptive and correlation research design. The study targeted a population of 182 individuals involved in various departments in Gasabo District. Employing Slovin’s formula, a sample size of 126 participants was determined to present the population. The coefficient for Counseling Services is 0.296, indicating that each unit improvement in these services corresponds to a 0.296 decrease in recidivism (B = 0.296, t = 5.490, Sig. = 0.000). Vocational Training Programs have coefficients of 0.331, meaning that a unit increase in their effectiveness results in a 0.331 reduction in recidivism (B = 0.331, t = 5.893, Sig. = 0.000). Aftercare Programs with a coefficient of 0.360, demonstrating that enhanced aftercare support leads to a 0.360 decrease in recidivism (B = 0.360, t = 6.405, Sig. = 0.000). These findings indicate the importance of strengthening Counseling Services, aligning Vocational Training Programs with labor market needs, and improving Aftercare Programs to ensure sustainable reintegration and lower recidivism among youth in Gasabo District.
