MCRC Mission

The Mission of the McLean County Reentry Council (MCRC) is to provide a coordinated community response to address reentry efforts and to reduce recidivism and family crisis episodes by bringing together justice-involved individuals, criminal justice officials, and health and human service providers to increase education, financial literacy, resources, and autonomy for justice-impacted individuals in McLean County, Illinois.

When a united community advocates for the removal of barriers that impede their fellow community members from leading productive and purposeful lives, the entire community becomes a vibrant and safe demographic for all citizens to feel seen and heard.  

Vision

To empower those returning from incarceration with resources and support through community partnerships, reducing recidivism, and fostering a safer and more inclusive, community.

Goals

  • Connect justice-impacted individuals reentering the community with resources for education, basic needs, and support. 
  • Reduce stigma by removing barriers and amplifying justice-impacted voices.
  • Act as a consistent, knowledgeable, empathic support for those reentering McLean County after incarceration to provide people with the best chance of successful reentry.

Supporting Reentry Zoom

Each month the MCRC hosts a monthly Zoom meeting to help educate the public about the struggles with reentry, share organization that have supportive resources, or give our community members direct testimony from formerly incarcerated or justice impacted people.


Mark your calendars for the third Friday of each month, from 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
