Manage episode 465780656 series 3645557
North Carolina's Reentry Councils were established to reduce the barriers to reentry by providing case managers and a network of needed services to help people transition from prison. Currently, there are reentry councils in 20 of North Carolina's 100 counties. Durham has one of the strongest, best resourced LRCs in the state.
In 2023, Judy Van Wyk and April Barber partnered to create a podcast about the many issues people face when transitioning from prison. Van Wyk is a longtime video producer and criminal justice advocate. April Barber received a life sentence when she was 15. After more than 31 years, she had her sentence commuted by Governor Cooper. She was released March 24, 2022.
