Vanessa Bright had an idea. What if formerly incarcerated individuals would not have such a tough time when they were released? And with that, the Maryland Re-Entry Resource Center (MDRRC) was born. There are so many barriers for formerly incarcerated people that often they end up committing more crime to figure a way to survive.
MDRRC offers the resources and referrals needed to thrive post-release. From job coaching and resume writing, to helping find housing, to obtaining insurance or a drivers license, the MDRRC can help.
The organization works very tightly with the Annapolis Police Department who has their own re-entry program; and they are even starting their own social enterprise to offer solid jobs for former inmates.
In a world where. many are forgotten, MDRRC is making a difference for those who are just looking for a second chance.
Have a listen!
