Since our inception, we have worked with formerly incarcerated residents to carry out critical participatory action research, community organizing, and policy advocacy to build community power, foster healing, and address issues impacting individuals in reentry. In addition to developing the leadership and accountability of those returning home from incarceration, we also work to improve their quality of life by reducing barriers to quality programs, economic dignity, housing, and family reunification. The work of the Safe Return Project not only transforms the lives of many individuals but has an impact on the culture of the broader community, as well as the national narrative around incarceration, reentry, and public safety.
