Road to Reentry: Introduction

Road to Reentry: Introduction

More than 90% of individuals incarcerated in Nebraska will return to our communities. During #SecondChanceMonth we’re highlighting the rehabilitative services and resources that encourage successful reentry.

The NDCS mission to keep people safe encompasses much more than counts, searches and locked doors. It means:

  • Changing thinking and behavior through non-clinical programming
  • Providing educational opportunities, job skills training and pro-social activities during incarceration
  • Addressing behavioral health needs with clinical treatment
  • Transitioning individuals through community corrections centers, if possible
  • And preparing the men and women in our care to have successful futures through comprehensive reentry planning


Stay tuned this week as we look at each of these parts of the road to reentry! #NDCSRoadToReentry
