Mission:
The Post-Prison Education Program (PPEP) creates hope and opportunity for people returning from prison by providing them with access to higher education during reentry. The Program gives imprisoned and formerly imprisoned people the tools they need to find gainful, meaningful employment, and break free from cycles of poverty and imprisonment. The Post-Prison Education Program addresses the root causes of these problems by counteracting systemic inequalities with real educational opportunity. |

Goals:
The goal of our program is to increase the number of released prisoners that transition successfully to state community colleges upon their release from prison in order that they reorient their lives, get back on track with their education, and gain the skills necessary to secure meaningful work at a living wage thereby reducing recidivism, economic crime, and prison overcrowding. |
