What it funds
Official synopsis as published by the agency, formatted for readability.
Since its inception in 2009, The National Reentry Resource Center (NRRC) has served as the primary source of information and guidance in reentry, advancing the use of evidence-based practices and policies by creating a network of practitioners, researchers, and policymakers invested in reducing recidivism. The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) completely funds the NRRC through the Second Chance Act funding. BJA and its partner agencies plan and convene a national conference with the NRRC that provide Second Chance Act grantees with information on how to maximize the likelihood their reentry initiatives yield measurable reductions in recidivism.
