Reentry 2030 is a national initiative that aims to dramatically improve reentry success for people exiting prison and those under supervision.
At Reentry 2030, we envision a future where every person leaving incarceration has the support, resources, and opportunities to successfully reintegrate and thrive. By 2030, our goal is to transform reentry from a period of uncertainty to one of empowerment, where systems and communities work together to break down barriers and restore human dignity.
We believe comprehensive reentry planning—including housing, education, employment, and mental health support—is key to reducing recidivism and building stronger communities. Through collaboration with state leaders, corrections professionals, and directly impacted individuals, we aim to make sustainable changes that uplift both returning citizens and the communities they rejoin.
Together, we are building a future where second chances lead to lasting success.
We are committed to a future of reentry that is:
Human-centered
State-specific solutions incorporate the perspectives of people who have gone through reentry themselves, to make reentry less confusing and more effective.
Coordinated
Leaders and decision-makers at all levels embrace their roles as part of a comprehensive support system, to support reintegration and decrease fragmentation.
Transparent
States set public goals and metrics and report on progress regularly and consistently, to promote accountability and guide future plans.
Equitable
Data-informed decisions drive investments to the people and communities with the most need, to ensure fairness and enhance impact.
