Reentry Simulation Events

Open to the School District of Philadelphia school groups only. To book, email [email protected].

Reflect on some of the many structural challenges people face when returning home from prison. During this hands-on experience, you’ll be assigned a fictitious back story and persona then encounter simulated scenarios that mirror real-life tasks like finding a job, reporting to a parole office, and paying bills. At the end of the activity, you’ll debrief your experience and discuss the criminal justice system and complexities of reentry.
