I would assume that in most countries rehabilitation is seen the same way as here in the US. It focuses on the top causes for crimes - lack of education, lack of opportunity. So there are rehabilitation programs that educate people and help place them in work programs. I would assume that rehabilitation does not focus on changing people's ideological values. Am I wrong? Is that a thing in other countries?

Generally rehabilitating beliefs is associated with authoritarian regimes (reeducation camps) or abuse (claiming to cure innate characteristics that others find inconvenient like sexuality or disability)
