Description

Reentry Enhancement Coordination Program (REC) REC was designed to close gaps by surrounding men and women transitioning from prison with supportive services in the community. REC serves men and women who have severe addictions and have completed drug and alcohol treatment during their incarceration. The individuals are linked to comprehensive assistance in securing housing, treatment, and employment when they return to the community. Similarly, individuals who are released from prison early on Short Term Transitional Leave (STTL) as part of Oregon’s Justice Reinvestment Program receive the same menu of comprehensive services in the community. REC and STTL provide 90 days of intensive supervision, outpatient treatment, supportive housing and support finding employment. Counselors, mentors, and employment specialists work with parole officers to help individuals transition back to the community successfully.
