Yes. In fact, it costs over $200,000 a year to incarcerate one woman, and that's in the general population. In a structured living environment, which is maybe more akin to these structured intervention units, it's upwards of $400,000 a year for one woman. It's very expensive to invest there. In communities, it's pennies to the dollar, and in communities is where you see the most success.
