Around the country, there are nearly 50,000 such legal restrictions. They drive re-arrest and significantly contribute to high rates of re-arrest and re-incarceration of people who have been released from prison.
During the 2021 legislative session, lawmakers passed HB 3304. This bill allows the Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation to establish a Re-entry and Transitional Housing Program, which will help alleviate some of these problems if properly implemented. It also can help to promote rehabilitation and ease reentry for some people.
If you are struggling to find housing, employment, or support after your release, the WV Family of Convicted People, Inc. wants to help. Please take a moment to review the links below. Still can’t find what you are looking for?
