1 in 31 adults are in prison, on probation or on parole. Unfortunately 33% of prisoners are re-arrested within 2 weeks of their release. A study by Stanford University shows that the first 72hrs are the most critical time for decision-making for an ex-inmate. Yet little to no services are focused solely on the initial 72 hours for re-entry. Our challenge was to reduce recidivism by filling the gap in services to provide resources and support immediately upon release. Our pick up drivers are ex-inmates who understand the challenges faced during re-entry. The newly released inmate is met on release day and enjoys a free meal with the pick up driver. This is an opportunity to discuss questions and fears about reintegration in a casual and empathetic environment. The inmate is provided with a pack full of resources and useful items to make their transition easier.
