About Us

Our Mission & Vision

Our mission is to break the cycle of incarceration by providing the resources, mentorship, and support that returning citizens need to successfully reintegrate into society. We envision a future where every person impacted by the justice system has the opportunity to live with dignity, stability, and purpose.

Our Story

Founded by a returning citizen who experienced firsthand the challenges of reentry, Real Life Reentry Resources was created to fill the gaps that make the difference between success and setback. Our lived experience fuels our passion for helping others navigate the same path — and our solutions are grounded in real life.
