A Re-Entry Workbook

Reintegration into the community is a critical part of the incarceration process. It is a time often filled with uncertainty and strong emotions. While many individuals are excited to return home, many are overwhelmed and anxious as they contemplate the hard work ahead. Steps to Success: A Re-Entry Workbook offers incarcerated individuals practical exercises to explore all reentry aspects–from deciding where they’ll be living, locating employment, and reconnecting with family and friends to fulfilling ongoing criminal justice system obligations. It empowers individuals to take ownership of their reentry process and personal growth. Whether you are a criminal justice professional, a supportive family member, or a returning citizen, whether you use this book to support work done in programming or as the basis for self-help, you'll benefit from this practical guide to reentry.
