"What are the challenges of re-entry into society?

The Challenges of Prisoner Re-Entry Into Society When prisoners in the United States are released, they face an environment that is challenging and actively deters them from becoming productive members of society. Within three years of release, 67.8 percent of ex-offenders are rearrested, and within five years, 76.6 percent are rearrested."

"Nationally, about 1 in 8 of all individuals released from state prisons, and more than 1 in 6 jail releases, are women."

" The United States has some of the highest recidivism rates in the world."

we want to help you.

Behind the Chair Ministries is available to you upon release from prison.

Once a release date is determined, women are encouraged to email Behind the Chair Ministries using the contact page provided on this site.

Our goal is to maintain an ongoing relationship between the newly liberated and their required personnel upon release, to better help ensure a positive, successful and independent re-entry to society.
