REENTRY is a family and community REUNIFICATION process

Black people who are not immigrants are four times as likely per their total demographic population to be incarcerated for the same or similar violations of law or ordinances as others.

This means more Black families, children, caregivers often elder grandparents and their communities are impacted more often than others by incarcerations in the US. Incarceration is more than punishment for individuals it impacts people in the community who are their support systems are interwind in the legal system as well bearing financial and emotion burden while surviving incarceration.

Coordinated reentry processes is essential to reducing the stressors related to avoiding recidivism. Getting the person the resources they need to adjust also keeps the family unit where they return more stable during their transition from jails and prisons back into the community.

We assist with that process for formerly incarcerated adults, juveniles and their support systems of families and loved ones.
