Tay Men’s Reentry & Women Rising Mission – Community Works, the organization behind Tay Men’s Reentry & Women’s Rising, seeks to catalyze our collective power to transform justice through programs and policy rooted in humanity and healing. The organization’s long-term goal is to radically reduce the number of individuals entering and re-entering the juvenile and criminal justice systems and to lessen the impact of incarceration on communities, particularly communities of color that have been disproportionately devastated by mass incarceration.
