Successful Collaborations between Nongovernmental Organizations and Corrections Agencies in Addressing Reentry

Hosted by the National Reentry Resource Center with funding support from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Assistance

In recent years, the federal government has invested millions of dollars in corrections agencies and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) that provide services and resources to individuals who are transitioning from prison to the community. This webinar will discuss areas of the reentry field that involve partnerships between NGOs and corrections agencies, specific examples of successful partnerships, the implications of policies and practices on these partnerships, and ways to form partnerships that will better serve individuals while they are incarcerated or under community supervision. This webinar will be especially beneficial to probation and parole staff, corrections administrators, reentry advocates, and service providers.
