April is Second Chance Month, a time to highlight the importance of supporting safe and successful reentry for those returning home from incarceration each year. Each April, offices across OJP celebrate Second Chance Month with various activities to draw attention to these important programs and policies. The BJA- and OJJDP- supported National Reentry Resource Center is the nation’s primary source of information and guidance on reentry. Through its vast collection of tools and training opportunities, the Center supports implementing evidence-based reentry programs.
