Agreement Date:

Description:
The Safari Black Community Reentry & Reintegration Program provides culturally responsive, strength‑based reintegration supports for Black individuals transitioning from incarceration to community. Through pre‑ and post‑release case management, peer mentorship, and individualized reintegration planning, the project addresses systemic barriers to housing, employment, mental health, and social connection, supporting successful reintegration and reduced recidivism.
Organization:
Public Safety Canada
Expected Results:

Through pre-release engagement, individualized reintegration planning, and intensive post release case management, Black participants will demonstrate increased readiness for community reintegration. RSW-led assessments, trauma-informed planning, and peer mentorship address known gaps in release preparation and culturally appropriate supports. At least 80% of participants will have individualized reintegration plans, active peer support engagement, and increased access to housing, employment, education, and mental health services during the critical post-release period.
