Reentry Education Framework Resources

Designed by RTI International for the U.S. Department of Education's (ED) Office of Career, Technical, and Adult Education, the Reentry Education Framework highlights five critical components of an effective reentry system: program infrastructure, strategic partnerships, education services, transition processes, and sustainability. Each component can be tailored to the specific context and needs of the education provider, its partners, and the target population.

RTI International and the ED have developed a number of resources relating to the framework:

• An online tool kit that provides guidelines, tools, and resources for each framework component
• Reentry Education Framework: Guidelines for Providing High-Quality Education for Adults Involved in the Criminal Justice System, a report that includes lessons learned and examples from three reentry education programs
• A report and video on the use of advanced technologies in corrections
