Planning for successful reentry truly takes a community! Yesterday marked the graduation of these Inner Circle members at the Tecumseh State Correctional Institution (TSCI).

The Inner Circle is a team of peer ambassadors who assist incarcerated individuals with questions regarding reentry and available resources. This knowledge and support is invaluable as individuals create their plans for reentry.

The establishment of the Inner Circle at TSCI is a significant milestone for the reentry team. A big thank you to all TSCI teammates whose support helped make this possible! #People #Programs
