Description
Many of the reentry service providers in the Greater New York City Area belong to silos of elaborate referral networks. Formerly incarcerated people rarely get the opportunity to get a feel for the variety of resources and services that are available. ReEntry Connect grants formerly incarcerated people direct access to the broadest range of reentry service providers and resources as possible, empowering them to make informed decisions along their reentry journey.
ReEntry Connect also creates a repository of inspiring reentry narratives and serves as a networking platform where returning citizens can share and raise questions about the nature of their reentry journeys. We hope to publish articles, audio and video talks, and profile pieces produced by or focusing on formerly incarcerated people.
ReEntry Connect allows user to chat, view PDFs, post text and images, create profiles, view profiles, browse a directory of reentry service providers and uploaded PDF resources.
