CONFERENCE REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED.

Join us in Charlotte for the 2023 North Carolina Reentry Conference hosted by the North Carolina Department of Adult Correction. The theme for the conference is Cultivating Cross-Sector Collaborations.

The conference will convene stakeholders from across the state to provide critical reentry information, share best practices, network, exchange ideas, raise awareness, and advocate for systemic reform. Highlights for this year’s conference include a panel discussion that allows justice-involved individuals to share lived experiences, reentry simulations that raise awareness about reentry challenges, and a targeted day-long workshop for employers focusing on the intersection of employment and reentry - Recruiting and Retaining Untapped Talent

Monday, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. Pre-Conference Workshop
Tuesday, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. Reception to follow
