Illinois Reentry Council
By coming together we build power to create change. Alliance members build relationships with directly impacted individuals, policymakers, and practitioners focused on systemic change across the State of Illinois. Through one-on-ones and house meetings, we learn each other’s stories and identify the most pressing issues to address.
The Alliance believes that people with records should play a central role in leading the charge towards finding solutions to the issues that affect us. Through community organizing trainings, individual mentorship, and skill building workshops, we seek to provide leadership opportunities for people with arrest and conviction records.
The Alliance builds powerful campaigns to change the systems that attempt to keep people with records, our families, and communities imprisoned.
