Reentering the community after a period of incarceration can be hard, especially if your friends and family members don’t support your goals. A safe place to share your frustrations and receive guidance can make a difference. Building a support network is one of the most important steps to maintaining a crime-free life.
With the onset of COVID-19 and social-distancing protocols, support groups and meetings shifted from in-person to online, giving individuals the opportunity to connect with people from all over the world.
Build your support network through Tha Yard, a free, weekly, meeting hosted by and for people who have been formerly incarcerated. Watch previous meetings on YouTube.
