Goffman’s theory of stigma and Foucault’s power perspectives are various theoretical framework explored.
The empirical material for the study was transcriptions of the interview from participants, which was later, reviewed and processed with the use of theories mentioned above. Previous studies made by different scholars were discussed on the research. The conclusion describes the experience and livelihood of participants, as well as their mental and physical being. The focus was on how the study affects lives of participants on the third phase process. A specific consideration was on the stressful and problematic nature of their ways of life. In summary, it sums up to their readiness as participants in changing their current situations, with the confidence of securing employment and preventing stigma in exchange of living a more meaningful life.
