Read more about Use SRCs to support NRRC Helpline requests

As the Helpline is a vital component of the NRRC (see Task 1.3), the NRRC must provide the complete and most up-to-date information and resources to those requesting assistance. The SRCs have “on the ground” knowledge of services and resources within their states, counties, and communities, making them a tremendous asset to those reaching out to the Helpline.

Read more about Engage SRCs to identify reentry resource gaps and implementation challenges

Working from the comprehensive database the NRRC is currently developing, the NRRC will elicit information regularly from the SRCs to help the center, BJA, and OJJDP identify resource gaps and implementation challenges with the reentry field. Methods to elicit this information could include semiannual surveys to gain broad knowledge of gaps and challenges coupled with follow-up interviews or focus groups to dive deeper into survey results.

Read more about Coordinate with SRCs to disseminate reentry information and resources

To ensure that the NRRC website and clearinghouses provide the most up-to-date research and practice-based evidence and resources, the NRRC is in the process of assembling a network of SRCs (Year 2 activity). The NRRC will build this network upon a comprehensive database of SRCs that will include their state, regional, or local affiliation; the organizational structure within which they work (e.g., department of corrections, state/county council); and their complete contact information.
