Responding to the FY16 Second Chance Act Smart Reentry Solicitation

Hosted by the National Reentry Resource Center with funding from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Assistance

In this webinar, officials from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) and the National Reentry Resource Center explain the Second Chance Act (SCA) Smart Reentry Solicitation and how state and local government agencies and federally recognized Indian tribal governments can apply for funding.

BJA’s “Smart Suite” of programs, which includes the Smart Reentry Program, invests in the development of practitioner-researcher partnerships that use data, evidence, and innovation to help create effective criminal justice strategies and interventions. Having a data-driven approach can enable jurisdictions to understand the full nature and extent of the criminal justice challenges they face and prioritize their resources.
