Mayor’s Policy Caucus
A few year’s ago, Mayor Daley convened a Caucus Group to focus on a variety of re-entry questions in Chicago. Each group drew up recommendations in published reports. As with any such reports, the test is in the actualization of recommendations with the passage of time. Recently, both groups have reconvened to form the Collaboration on Reentry. The goal of the Collaboration is to revisit previous recommendations, assess their effect and to move forward with additional concerns.
David Rosa, SAC Administrator, and Bob Dougherty, SLM Executive Director, have been asked to continue their efforts with the earlier entities as members of the Collaboration on Reentry. With such concern in the current economy focused on employment and housing at all levels, the work of the Collaboration is surely pressing for the world of those formerly incarcerated. Leonard’s Ministries is honored to share in the Mission of the Collaboration.
