The Sentencing Project Organizes Congressional Briefing on Youth Reentry

On November 16, The Sentencing Project and the National Alliance to End Homelessness organized a Congressional briefing, hosted by Senator Benjamin Cardin (D- Md.) on Capitol Hill.  The briefing, intended to raise awareness of the importance of supporting youth in their transition from incarceration back to the community, was attended by more than 100 Hill staff members, advocates, and practitioners.  A new report, co-authored by Ashley Nellis of The Sentencing Project, was also released.
