DescriptionThe Institute’s After Prison Initiative supports successful reentry and reintegration of people returning from prison. The Initiative focuses on advocacy, coalition building, public education, impact litigation, and policy-driven research and analysis that promote investment in community infrastructure instead of prisons. Projects that encourage civic participation and leadership by former prisoners in justice policy reform; facilitate their access to work, housing, education, health care, and political participation; and create cross-sector, neighborhood-based restorative reentry strategies to replace the surveillance orientation of parole and other community penalties are also of interest. The Initiative supports projects in justice reinvestment, new leadership development, eradication of civil barriers to reintegration, and restorative reentry practices.
