Involving Victim's in Reentry Planning: National Reentry Resource Center's Victims and Reentry Webinar

The National Reentry Resource Center Announces a Victims and Reentry Webinar

This free webinar will cover promising and replicable practices and program models for involving crime victims and victim services in offender reentry planning processes. Although reentry planning has long focused on the needs of offenders, there has often been a lack of attention paid to the needs of the crime victims, who are potentially re-traumatized when their offenders prepare to reenter their communities. This webinar will help participants identify ways to assess and address victims’ needs, invite and include victim services in reentry planning conversations, and develop victim-offender programming that focuses on offender accountability.

When: December 2, 2010, 2:00 p.m. ET

This webinar, facilitated by Leah Kane, policy analyst at the Council of State Governments Justice Center, will feature a presentation by Trudy M. Gregorie, Justice Solutions.

A question-and-answer session will follow the presentation.
