The bill authorizes the Attorney General to establish a grant program for eligible community-based nonprofit organizations . These grants will fund the creation of community reentry centers , which are designed to provide comprehensive, trauma-informed, and gender-responsive services to individuals after conviction or incarceration. Services include assistance with employment, housing, education, legal aid, healthcare, and transportation, all aimed at fostering successful reintegration and reducing recidivism. Applicants must demonstrate plans for community stakeholder collaboration, needs assessments, and continuous service provision. A key provision gives preference to applicants that employ formerly incarcerated individuals , particularly in positions of responsibility. The bill also authorizes separate grants for states, Indian Tribes, and local governments to operate 24/7 toll-free reentry services assistance hotlines . These hotlines must direct individuals to local services, ensure confidentiality, be staffed by trained personnel, and be accessible to individuals with limited English proficiency and disabilities. The Attorney General is mandated to evaluate the program's effectiveness and report annually to Congress on outcomes such as recidivism rates, employment, and housing stability, with $10 million and $1.5 million authorized annually for the centers and hotlines, respectively, for fiscal years 2027-2031.
