PROGRAM OBJECTIVES:
The Offender Reentry Program (Young Offender Initiative: Reentry Grant Program) is a combined effort by DOJ, HHS, and DOL to assist jurisdictions in facing the challenges presented by the return of offenders from prison to the community. The goal is to improve risk management of released offenders by enhancing surveillance and monitoring, strengthening individual and community support systems, and repairing the harm done to victims. These initiatives are part of an ambitious effort by the sponsoring Federal agencies to help address the continuing problem of offenders entering the community after incarceration with little or no surveillance, accountability, or resource investment.
