WATCH: Congressional and State Leaders Provide Briefing on the Future of Reentry Programs and Policy
July 2025
With recidivism costing states approximately $8 billion annually, bold state-led approaches are needed to reduce recidivism and increase access to employment, housing, and health care for people after incarceration.
The CSG Justice Center hosted a virtual reentry briefing with bipartisan congressional champions and state leaders.
The briefing covered:
- How the bipartisan Second Chance Reauthorization Act of 2025 would create a framework for state innovation while providing critical federal support for reentry programs
- The latest trends in community supervision violations
- Proven strategies for implementing whole-of-government reentry programs and policies that result in measurable improvements
- How your state can support federal efforts, join the CSG Justice Center’s Reentry 2030 movement, and access resources to support data-driven reentry innovation
