Report Examines Fragmented Reentry Services for Formerly Incarcerated Individuals Attending College

For years, advocates for higher education in prison programs worked to see Pell Grants reintroduced for incarcerated individuals. When the revised Pell Grant regulations went into effect in July 2023, they contained a provision that college in prison programs must now document how they and/or organizations with which they partner provide reentry services. In the report “Exploring the Landscape of College and Community Reentry Partnerships,” Ithaka S+R examines some of the disconnects as well as best practices. This report was funded by ECMC Foundation.
