A state reentry program started last year is helping people who used to be incarcerated secure jobs on transportation work crews and get identification cards to access housing and healthcare more easily. The N.C. Department of Transportation Transitional Work Pilot program seeks to make reentry easier for the people who are released from North Carolina prisons each year. The program also expanded the agency’s work release efforts so people will be better prepared for life after incarceration. Rhonda Royster, the NCOOT’s On-The-Job Training Program Manager, joined Jeff Hamlin to discuss the program.
