2007 Cornwall Center Annual Forum:
"Coming
Home: A Social Justice Approach to Prisoner Reentry in New Jersey"
|
What:
|
This
forum offered personal, community, and policy perspectives concerning what
the community can do while a person is incarcerated, or otherwise under
criminal justice supervision, to meet an individual's reentry needs; and
to understand what we, as society, can do upon an individual's release
from prison toward the goal of successful reentry. The day ended with a
"Where do we go from here?" planning session. |
