The BIG Picture &

Pathways to Change:

Working with community members currently or formerly incarcerated and their families, policy makers, community leaders, service providers, university, and Detention Center Admin., staff and citizen advisory.

Getting support and providing community eduction / awareness by presenting to 2 county commission boards, going on radio show, and talking to people.

What got us thru? Communication, follow thru, persistence, reflection, and our coach.

We Have Grown:

As leaders

As individuals

As a team

Cross-Sector Collaboration

We established a Reintegration Work Group to engage service providers, community leaders, academia and other stakeholders as equal partners. This group has clarified the services that are able to be offered in the reintegration center and transitional services that will be offered in the community. We have developed MOUs with community agencies who have committed to providing adult education. clinical and non-clinical programs, case management staff support, grant writing, and research.

The Voices of

Those Who Have The

Lived Experience Must Be Heard.....

Team Leadership Goals:

We involved 2 community champions who have experienced addiction and the criminal justice system to promote meaningful involvement in the decision making process. Their involvement in planning has led to services being implemented in the women's pod of the county jail. Coaching community champions provided opportunities for them to participate in local and national trainings that helped them

to further develop their leadership skills. By listening

and learning, we have been introduced to new

programs as well.
