Together for Safe, Supportive Reentry

who we are

The Reentry Coalition of Iowa is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting individuals reentering society.

We connect a wide range of services and resources to help clients successfully reintegrate into their communities.

Our team is committed to offering guidance, advocacy, and support to those seeking to rebuild their lives after incarceration.

They say everyone deserves a second chance, but second chances don’t happen by accident. They are built through policy, partnership, and people who care enough to fight for them. The Reentry Coalition of Iowa was born from that fight.

​

​We are a statewide alliance committed to transforming reentry in Iowa. We bring together community leaders, service providers, advocates, and system stakeholders to ensure that every returning citizen has access to the resources, opportunities, and dignity they need to thrive, not just survive.

We believe reentry is more than a transition.

It’s a turning point.

And when done right, it’s a launchpad for healing, growth, and justice.

Our purpose is to build second chances through community, compassion, and connection.
