The San Francisco Reentry Council is a public/private partnership created by the District Attorney to reduce crime. The Council implements new ways to hold offenders accountable and reduce recidivism among individuals who have recently been released from jail, prison or a juvenile facility. The Council brings together leaders from law enforcement and government, business, labor, education, health services, and the faith community. These leaders are working together to create, model reentry strategies throughout
Purpose:
The members of the Council coordinate and marshal their resources to create reentry strategies focused on the following core elements:
- Accountability: Offenders must be held accountable, both for their offense and for their conduct while participating in reentry programs. We must also hold our systems and our community providers accountable for real results.
- Family & Community: The Council also focuses on engaging ex-offenders with their children, families and communities.
