Prison is currently used for containing criminals, but some of those criminals are not necessarily dangerous ones that need to be locked away from their friends and family. Prison should be used to contain dangerous criminals such as murderers, rapists, etc.

The purpose of prison in the United States at least, is to punish people who break the law by isolating them from the outside world. I believe the purpose of prison should be to rehabilitate the criminals and get them back into shape for social reintegration instead of just punishing them and treating them like animals. Depending on the crime of course.

Prison should be used to either hold someone who has done something so bad it warrants banishment, or used to help someone come back from something like that. It could either help someone or contain them until their date is decided. Then again I'm looking at this from a point of view towards holding people accused of seriously heavy crimes.

Prison in its current state separates the criminals from our society. This beginning purpose is correct, we need to first find and separate the issue; however, the steps which we have taken now have been greatly corrupted into something worse.
As prison stands now, we punish. We punish not only the worst of the worst, but also the vulnerable innocent. While reform programs do exist, the primary function has been focused upon punishment. Whether an inability to pay bail or to murder, jail is where the victims will be.
Within these jails we may isolate the prisoners completely from the already isolated societies of the prison. Once free of the bonds, they are hindered forever as they are tagged with a "CRIMINAL" status. This can lead to positive feedback loop in which they are sent back into prison for more punishment.
Prison may and should still complete it's purpose of punishment, especially for those who deserve the punishment. However, prison should be a stop in life for rehabilitation. Where people can be separated and then they may properly reintegrate into society again.
