Create your own customized Reentry Packet in just a few minutes.

Search by State and City or Zip Code to find useful resources! Add them to the packet by clicking the button to the right of any listing in the results. When finished just click the Next button at the top.

Resource Directory Instructions

Our Resource Directory is an easy-to-use information resource! Just enter your state and city name or zip code, and the distance you are able to travel. The search tool will look through our data base for goods, services and information at the local, state and national level. The Resource Directory contains listings for such things as hot meals, free and sliding scale medical and dental care, support to break free from addiction, licensing limitations, employment and training centers, pro-bono law offices and housing options.


After entering your requested information, your results will appear.


On the right are the local programs you might want to try first. To save the information and add it to your packet is easy!


1. Click on any category that interests you and it will expand showing you the individual resources we have located so far for that category.


2. Mark the ones that interest you by clicking the green to the right of the resource. This will put the information onto your page for the packet.


3. Below the "Search Results" section on this page you will see Your Saved Resources. The listings will be grouped by category, and then alphabetically.


4. If you would like to remove any listing from your document, just click on the delete located on the left of the listing – and it will disappear.


5. Add listings until you feel you have all you need for this location. Then click on Continue to the Next Step. The listings you have saved in Your Saved Resources will automatically print with the rest of the packet!

We have many useful documents in our tool kit. Here in our Reentry Packet builder they can all be added quickly and printed together. Just click the boxes to add or remove the item from the packet you are creating! View an item by clicking on the orange link. To return to the main page, just close the window.
