RSVP for Community Reentry Simulation
media release: JustDane, a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting justice and equity, is proud to announce its upcoming Community Reentry Simulation, scheduled for December 7. This event aims to raise awareness and foster understanding about the challenges individuals face upon reentering society after incarceration.
Thursday, December 7, 2023, 6:00pm-9:00pm, Christ Presbyterian Church
The Community Reentry Simulation was developed by JustDane in 1998 and has been conducted across the country. The simulation is a hands-on experience designed to provide participants with insights into the reentry process. Attendees will navigate through various simulated scenarios, each representing different aspects of life after incarceration, including housing, employment, healthcare, and community relationships.
This unique simulation is an opportunity for community members, policymakers, and stakeholders to gain a deeper understanding of the complex issues faced by people returning home after incarceration and to engage in meaningful conversations about how to create a more supportive and inclusive community for individuals rejoining society.
JustDane believes that fostering empathy and awareness is crucial to breaking down barriers and building a more compassionate and equitable society. By participating in this simulation, attendees will gain valuable insights into the systemic challenges faced by those with a history of incarceration and explore potential solutions to create a more just community for all.
Attendance is open to the public, and participants are required to register in advance due to limited space. Sign up by November 30. To register and learn more about the Community Prison Reentry Simulation, please visit https://www.signupgenius.com/
