Eastern Kentucky Reentry Council
Description
The Eastern Kentucky Reentry Council is a community organization that meets in Prestonsburg, Kentucky, specializing in returning citizens' reentry and related issues. The Eastern Kentucky Reentry Council is made up of the Big Sandy Area Development District (Johnson, Magoffin, Martin, Floyd, and Pike counties) and the Kentucky River Area Development District (Wolfe, Owsley, Lee, Breathitt, Leslie, Perry, Knox, and Letcher counties). This coalition is an initiative by the Kentucky Department of Corrections, Division of Reentry Services. Their mission is to improve involvement within the criminal justice system by creating individualized reentry plans and empowering individuals with resources, support and programming, to promote successful reintegration into the community. In addition, the division works with the justice-involved population to enhance communities by aiding in the transition of the individuals becoming pro-social members of society. To receive services, the Eastern Kentucky Reentry Coalition urges you to contact them directly, via email or by phone.
