Reentry Simulations

Each year, just over 650,000 Americans are released from U.S. jails, prisons, and detention centers and attempt to return home to their communities with varying levels of family support, financial resources, and stable housing. Most of them will experience overwhelming challenges and feelings of hopelessness and desperation. Not surprisingly, about 65% of those who reenter will return to imprisonment within three years.

The Reentry Simulation can create a powerful, eye-opening experience that sheds harsh light on the reasons for that high national recidivism rate. And it can do so in just two hours. Participants in the simulation are given the “identity” of a formerly imprisoned person, including: a hypothetical conviction, education level, a place to live and a small sum of money they’ve managed to save during their incarceration. Participants receive instructions for both practical and court-ordered obligations they must complete each week. Fifteen minutes represents one week. At the end of each fifteen minutes, participants are evaluated for progress or failure.

Through the total two-hours of simulation and discussion, participants will learn more about the reentry landscape, experience a sense of the challenges involved with reentry after a period of incarceration, and see themselves in the solution.
