CAL-PRI

Almost 50,000 people a year enter homeless shelters immediately after exiting incarceration. Returning from jail, prison or juvenile detention places an immediate barrier to stable housing and employment.

THE CALCASIEU PRISONER REENTRY INITIATIVE (CAL-PRI) IS COMPRISED OF A DIVERSE GROUP OF MEMBERS REPRESENTING LOCAL, STATE AND FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES; COMMUNITY-BASED AGENCIES; FAITH-BASED GROUPS AND OTHER INDIVIDUALS WHO WISH TO ASSIST RE-ENTERING COMMUNITY MEMBERS IN THEIR DESIRE TO BE SUCCESSFUL.
