Disrupt Panel Discussion 2024
Join us for our 4th Annual Panel Discussion and Event: DISRUPT 2024
Our moderator and panel will discuss life after youth incarceration and the need for vital reintegration services. Reintegration services for formerly incarcerated youth have a transformative impact on their journey back into the community, addressing diverse challenges and fostering positive outcomes. By focusing on education, skill development, and job placement, these services pave the way for stability and purposeful engagement. Comprehensive services empower individuals to break free from cycles of incarceration, allowing them to thrive as liberated and engaged members of their communities.
