05/16/2025

In Indianapolis, reentry is more than a service—it’s a movement. Every year, thousands of individuals return home from incarceration, ready to rebuild their lives and contribute to our communities.

Through strong partnerships, community programs, and second-chance employers, we’re creating real pathways to:
🏠 Safe housing
💼 Meaningful employment
📚 Education & skill-building
❤️ Mental health & wellness support

When we invest in reentry, we invest in safer neighborhoods, stronger families, and a more equitable Indy.

📣 Let’s lift up those doing the work—and those doing the hard work of starting over.
