Supportive Services Following Incarceration
The DOC Scattered Site Program is a collaboration between CRT and the State of Connecticut Department of Correction that assists ex-offenders in making a smooth transition to leading productive lives in the community.
The program offers a comprehensive approach that increases community safety and reducing recidivism rates. After being released from a Connecticut Department of Correction facility, 24 individuals live in supervised scattered site apartments with frequent check-ins and support from members of the scattered sites team.
Participants receive a wide array of services and support, including referrals to the appropriate community resources for anywhere between four to six months. By providing case management, vocational/employment readiness services, and life skills coaching, the program helps these individuals become successful and productive members of the community after incarceration.
Referrals are made through the Connecticut Office of Parole. Once a participant has been approved for the program, a district Parole Officer will be assigned as the point person for entirety of their programming. The district Parole Officer will serve as the liaison between CRT and DOC administration.
Individuals interested in applying for this program should contact their assigned Parole Officer and should submit a request for placement in the Scattered Sites Program.
