This year it's expected that 600,000 prison inmates will be released from secure detention facilities and return to their communities and families.
Returning ex-offenders will go home to some of the most disenfranchised neighborhoods, where there are few supports and services to help them reintegrate effectively, and where their presence may threaten to disrupt already fragile households and social structures.
Rev. Alan Barrow is a 12 year volunteer in the Dept. of Corrections. He will share awareness of the present incarceration and release practices and how they work for and against us within the context of community re-integration.
