Re-entering society after incarceration presents a formidable set of challenges. In addition to reconnecting with family and community, successful transition after imprisonment requires a person not only to avoid criminal activity, but also to obtain and sustain employment--or continue along an education pathway. Those best able to navigate this process have developed skills and credentials while incarcerated that are valued by potential employers, training programs, and colleges. In fact, a substantial body of evidence also indicates that formerly incarcerated individuals--sometimes referred to as returning citizens--who receive high-quality educational services and supports re-enter their communities, obtain jobs, and become contributing members of society. This report examines correctional education with an emphasis on opportunities and challenges for prison education throughout Maryland.
