Serious and Violent Offender Reentry
Initiative Grantee
Rhode Island Department of Corrections (Amount: $1,907,014*)
The Rhode Island Department of Corrections will use grant funds
to enhance two existing adult and juvenile reentry projects. The
Challenging Offenders to Maintain Positive Associations and Social
Stability (COMPASS) Project targets more than 600 adult offenders
released to the City of Providence and more than 300 juveniles
released from custody throughout the state. Through the COMPASS
Project, the Rhode Island Departments of Corrections and Children,
Youth and Their Families will partner with various service agencies
to address the challenges of recidivism, substance abuse, and physical
and mental health issues and to support workforce participation,
housing, family reunification, and faith-based mentoring. For more
