EJP Reentry Resource Program Application
NOTE - Members of Reentry Resource Program are not compensated.
The Reentry Resource Program (reentryillinois.net), an initiative of the Education Justice Project at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign, is supported by members who are passionate about reentry justice. We work together to produce prison reentry and deportation guides. Members contribute to the initiative in various ways depending on their interests and skills. General membership positions are not compensated.
Members can join the following teams:
Writing and Research Team
Researching/writing on a topic they have specialized knowledge about
Researching/writing on new laws or resources
Contributing or soliciting photographs or illustrations
Interviewing system-impacted individuals
Distribution and Outreach Team
Contacting organizations who might be interested in using our guides with clients
Mailing guides from our campus office to incarcerated individuals
Coordinating special projects like our reentry toolkits and video series
All members
Attending monthly meetings
Participating in trainings
Designing and delivering webinars
Co-presenting at workshops and conferences
Advisory committee members (paid position for formerly incarcerated/deported individuals)
We value your personal experience with incarceration and reentry (or deportation) and the guidance you provide. In addition to any of the above activities that interest you, we welcome your thoughts on what important content you believe is currently missing or inadequately addressed in our reentry materials as well as information on advocacy opportunities in the community, ideas for trainings and other insights you can share as a system-impacted individual.
Please complete the online application, which you can access by clicking the "" button in the top right corner. We realize this language may be confusing. Working with RRP is a non-compensated position, not a part-time job. Unfortunately, our platform does not allow us to change the word "job."
For more information feel free to email us at [email protected]. General membership is not compensated. For a list of paid positions with EJP, visit https://educationjustice.net/staff-openings/
