Assisting Formerly Incarcerated With Becoming
Productive Law-Abiding Citizens
There are over 2.3 million people incarcerated in the United States. The U.S. represents about 4.4 percent of the world's population but houses approximately 22 percent of the world's prisoners.
Over 600,00 returning citizens come back to our cities, communities and neighborhoods each year. Only 5 percent of inmates will never be released.
The Second Look Amendment Act of 2019 was passed in April 2021, which will give hundreds of inmates the opportunity to be released early from crimes that were committed while they were juveniles. The majority were given life sentences for crimes committed before they were 18 years old. In order to reduce recidivism, it is imperative that this population is afforded the opportunity to live productive lives and become law-abiding citizens if they choose.
R4 offers that chance, but without your help it is impossible.
WE WORK WITH
Children Impacted By Incarceration
More than 2.7 million children in the U.S. have an incarcerated parent. That is 1 in 28 children.
​
Having a parent in prison can have an impact on a child’s mental health, social behavior, and educational prospects. Children who have an incarcerated parent may experience financial hardship that results from the loss of that parent’s income.
WE ASSIST
Veterans
About 9 percent of Veterans and service members who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan have been arrested since returning home.
​
More than half of justice-involved Veterans have either mental health problems—namely PTSD, depression, or high anxiety—or substance-abuse disorders, most notably alcohol or cocaine addiction.
A large percentage of these Veterans are homeless or at-risk for homelessness, and many others face such challenges as finding work and reintegrating into society. Plus, Veterans who collide with the criminal justice system may be at higher risk for suicide.
