In this season of gratitude Inside Out has so much to be grateful for. Although we don’t expect warm wishes from our incarcerated members, it definitely reminds us how lucky we are to have a strong reentry community when we do. Thank you Inside Out members, staff, volunteers, and donors for all you do! #reentry #reentrymatters #incarceration #criminaljusticereform

Hope House is a work release center with the 6th Judicial District in Coralville, where many of our members begin their reentry journey. Inside Out facilitates a group at Hope House every Friday where members, and those interested in becoming members, come in for questions, support, or just for a chat. The first hour of the group is focused on check-ins and resource connection, while the second hour is dedicated to the topic question of the week. The hope for each week's question is to nurture personal growth and reflection. We are grateful for partnerships such as this one where we can connect with those early in their reentry and provide integral support. #reentry #reentrymatters #returningcitizens #formerlyincarcerated
