The Reentry Committee partners with New Jersey Prison Justice Watch and the American Reentry Initiative, along with other universities and community partners. We engage in advocacy for degree programs for formerly incarcerated folks in NJ and facilitate other kinds of support. This semester, Reentry will be leading a course titled “Radical Imagination and the Political Consciousness” aimed at justice-impacted folks considering higher education. Sign bit.ly/spearclass. This past year, we worked on the Welcome Home Initiative, which supports NJ residents returning home from incarceration. This initiative was primarily established to support the passage of public health legislation that led to the release of over 2,000 NJ residents. We staffed a hotline for returning citizens, compiled a network of distribution centers and county-specific resources, and contacted partners to collect in-kind donations, such as toiletries, PPE, and cell phones. Going forward, we will continue to work on the Welcome Home Initiative and look for more opportunities to support reentry in New Jersey.
