Missouri Reentry Process
Gov. Jay Nixon signed an executive order supporting cooperative community efforts to help ex-offenders successfully return to communities. The Missouri Reentry Process (MRP), directed by the Missouri Dept. of Corrections, provides tools for a smoother transition from incarceration to the community. The MRP began in 2002.
George Lombardi, director of the Missouri Corrections Department, joined business, community, nonprofit, law enforcement, faith-based and others involved at a March 27 event at Southeast Community Center to share the signing of the executive order. 
Watch video LINC has been actively involved in several local reentry process efforts in Kansas City and eastern Jackson County.
