We believe that formerly incarcerated women must be visible and out front in the fight to change the criminal justice policies that negatively affect women, their families, and their communities.
Through ReConnect, formerly incarcerated women learn how to overcome the personal barriers they face when returning home—barriers such as employment discrimination, housing rights, parental rights, financial justice and access to education. Women also learn how to work with others to change the laws and policies that negatively affect people directly impacted by the criminal justice system.
Apply to the next cycle of ReConnect and join women who are working to change the criminal justice system.
