In this interactive virtual workshop, participants will learn about how Pathways Vermont utilized Housing First values to build a synergetic partnership with the Vermont Department of Corrections (DOC). Through this ever-evolving partnership, Pathways supports people leaving incarceration to reacclimate to independent living and reintegrate into their communities, including building – and sometimes reconnecting with – natural supports. We’ll discuss common challenges people face when leaving incarceration and reintegrating into the community, including the impact of institutionalization on mental health and the importance of balancing personal autonomy with accountability to one’s community.
