To support Family ReEntry’s advocacy and education efforts to improve policies, practices, and conditions in the Connecticut juvenile and criminal justice systems, particularly around the issues of sentencing, prisoner reentry and community supports. Family ReEntry seeks to reduce family violence and raise awareness about the impact of violence on youth and to advocate a continuum of services that best meets the needs of individuals. It also seeks to strengthen prisoner relationships with families, particularly their children, to improve outcomes for those returning to the community. The agency is involved in many task forces and initiatives addressing these issues.
