This handbook explains reasons why institutional corrections and community supervision agencies should realign their policies and practices to support offender reentry, and it provides a framework for how to engage in this work. This framework provides the format for the handbook. It consists of four components for consideration when implementing an effective offender reentry strategy: leadership and organizational change, rational planning process, collaboration, and effective offender management practices. Using this framework, the handbook outlines how institutional corrections and community supervision agency leadership can realign their vision and mission to produce more successful outcomes with offenders while changing the organizational culture, increasing agency effectiveness through improved partnership with others, and involving staff in effective offender management practices. The handbook provides users with information, tools, and resources that will enable them to increase the likelihood that offenders will be released from their care prepared to assume their active, vital, and law-abiding roles in the community. A separate chapter is devoted to key features of reentry case management for women offenders. Appended offender reentry policy and practice inventory
