HRES 1222 United States House · 119th Congress

Recognizing the designation of the week of April 24 through April 30 as the annual "National Reentry Week".

This resolution officially designates the week of April 24 through April 30 as the annual "National Reentry Week" to raise awareness about the challenges formerly incarcerated individuals face when returning to society. The bill highlights the need for better support systems, such as access to housing, education, job training, and mental health services, to help reduce recidivism rates. It encourages the Department of Justice and the Bureau of Prisons to coordinate reentry efforts and engage in related events during this designated week. While the measure does not change laws or allocate funding, it serves to focus national attention on policies that promote successful reintegration and public safety.
