The Eichelberger Foundation awarded funding to the Office of Reentry to expand services within prison. A Community and Resource Engagement (CaRE) plan is created for each returning citizen that is interested. In-reach at Ohio prisons is important in engaging those returning to the community before they leave incarceration.

Evaluating and tracking the percentage of people who were engaged through the Eichelberger Grant shows that the in-reach is resulting in participation and graduation from the Reentry Career Alliance Academy (RCAA).
