REINVENTING ReEntry

"A problem cannot be solved with the same consciousness that created it."
​                                                                                - Albert Einstein



 "Those who broke the system can’t fix it without fresh ideas
from others who 'think outside the box."

                                                                                 - Sue Ellen Allen

REINVENTING REENTRY


​More than 600,000 people in the U.S. are released from jail every year. After these Americans have served their time, they face huge barriers to rejoining society. For many, their time in prison is only the beginning of a life-long sentence. 


Those who return to their communities from prison carry the burden of shame and stigma. They leave a world of isolation and enter a world of alienation and denied opportunity. It’s time for a change. It’s time to Reinvent Reentry.


Jobs are the answer. Education is the answer. Access to housing is the answer. Getting a fair chance is the answer.

Join the movement. Together we can enact real change. 
Why give a former inmate second chances?

"What did I think a felon was before I went to prison?"
​
Our society treats those who have been to prison as “others,” and it is taking a huge toll on our communities. We deny them opportunities and define them by past actions for which they have already paid. What does a felon look like? Are their skills, talents and ambitions confined to a box on an application? ​
