The power of re-entry with dignity for the formerly incarcerated

With 2.3 million people in its jails, the US has the highest incarceration rate in the world - accounting for nearly 20% of those imprisoned globally. The communities most impacted in the US are communities of color. This episode highlights the efforts of three organizations that seek to support those re-entering society and do so in a way that reduces recidivism while ensuring dignity. We explore some of the issues, factors to keep in mind to ensure successful programming, and where there are opportunities for real change at the local level. Join co-host Thomas Rosenberg and his panel of guests for a thoughtful conversation about a topic that impacts millions of families.
