Reentry Campaign Background |
The Reentry National Media Outreach Campaign will expand public
awareness and dialogue, provide media-based resources, and work
in partnership with key organizations engaged in local initiatives
to strengthen families and neighborhoods. The campaign will facilitate
discussion and decision making about solution-based reentry programs
that foster public safety and support healthy communities. 
Critical to the success of the campaign will be its focus on issues that are
of primary concern to policy leaders, faith- and community-based organizations,
and public television stations; and that can lead to desired outcomes. Public
safety gains are typically measured in terms of reduced recidivism. Reintegration
outcomes would include increased participation in social institutions such
as the labor force, families, communities, schools, and religious organizations.
Both financial and social benefits are associated with successful reentry.
