Reentry Resources | Employment | Housing | Health & Wellness | Legal Services | and more!

The Re-entry Collaborative Resource Fair is an all-day community event designed to support justice-impacted individuals as they transition from incarceration back into the community. 

The fair brings together a wide range of community-based organizations, service providers, and campus partners to offer information, referrals, and direct connections to critical reentry resources. Participants will have the opportunity to engage one-on-one with providers offering support in areas such as education, employment, housing, health and wellness, legal services, and social support. 

By creating a welcoming, centralized space for resource sharing, the event aims to reduce barriers, promote stability, and support successful reentry and long-term community reintegration.
