About this Event

Second Chance Month is a national observance that highlights the importance of supporting individuals returning home from incarceration and strengthening pathways to successful reentry. Throughout April, the Mayor's Office on Returning Citizen Affairs (MORCA) will host a series of events and initiatives focused on connecting returning citizens with employment opportunities, critical resources, and community support.

This event features a screening of How Did I Get Here, a film highlighting the journeys, challenges, and triumphs of women navigating reentry. Following the film, participants will engage in a reflective discussion and creative activity focused on healing, empowerment, and community support.
