Day 3 Concurrent Session - Investing in Returns
America is the incarceration capital of the world, having invested in exponential imprisonment rates and leaving one third of its citizens with a criminal record. 95% of those in prison eventually come home, facing formidable barriers to successful reentry. This includes over 25,000, mostly Black and Hispanic, who return to Philadelphia annually. This interactive seminar exposes the injustices of mass incarceration and systems of reentry, and invites attendees to explore 5 ways they can take action to invest in the successful return of persons to their communities.
