Durham County Justice Services

Durham Local Reentry Council

About the Program

The Durham County Local Reentry Council is an organized network of individuals and agencies that provide support to justice involved individuals who are Durham residents. Our goal is to connect those individuals with services and support to successfully transition back into the Durham Community.

Justice Services Department (JSD) is the intermediary agency for the Durham Local Reentry Council. The role of the intermediary agency is to bring together organizations and stakeholders who could offer assistance and resources to help justice involved individuals.

Please wait while we gather your results.

  • Individuals in prison who are within 6 months of release with a Durham home plan

The Process

There are four (4) main steps in the LRC process:

  1. The LRC receives a client referral from case manager, probation officer, or client.
  2. The LRC does a needs assessment by working with the client and referral source pre-release, if appropriate.
  3. Once post-release, the client meets with the LRC coordinator.
  4. From that meeting, a personalized plan for a successful reentry is developed and executed.
