Creating Safer Neighborhoods and Better Citizens

The primary goal of the Michigan Prisoner ReEntry Initiative (MPRI) is to promote public safety by increasing the success rates of prisoners transitioning from prison to the community. The vision of the MPRI is that every prisoner released from prison will have the tools needed to succeed in the community.

  • MPRI delivers a seamless plan of services, support, and supervision from the time a prisoner enters prison through their return to a community.
