Did you know that April is recognized as both Second Chance Month and National Reentry Month? It's a time dedicated to raising awareness about the challenges faced by individuals returning to their communities after incarceration, and the importance of supporting their successful reintegration. These observances highlight the barriers people often encounter, such as limited access to employment, housing, education, and healthcare, as well as the stigma that can follow a criminal record.
