Reentry is the process of someone who has been incarcerated and is returning to the community. Returning to the community from jail or prison is a complex transition for most offenders, as well as for their families and communities. Upon reentering society, former offenders are likely to struggle with substance abuse, lack of adequate education and job skills, limited housing options, transportation, and mental health issues.

Our Mission:

The Southern Kentucky Reentry Council is dedicated to empowering individuals transitioning from incarceration by providing support, resources, and advocacy. We collaborate with community partners to reduce recidivism, promote successful reintegration, and build a safer, stronger community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive..

By working together we can make our communities safer, save money, and help returning citizens become responsible citizens.
