REENTRY

COMMUNITY RESOURCES & RE-ENTRY BUREAU

Hundreds of individuals return home to Brooklyn each year from incarceration. Our mission is to assist those individuals to successfully re-enter their communities by providing a range of services and support. We offer case management and a combination of onsite services and referrals. Our office is a reentry HUB where clients can relax and read or surf the web while obtaining services and building their skills.

The District Attorney’s office operates two re-entry programs:

• Community Resources & Re-Entry Program
• Kings County Re-Entry Task Force
