Reentry Mentor

Fedcap NYC provides programs and services that change the lives of marginalized people facing barriers to economic and social wellbeing. Our Transition Planning & Transportation program (TPT) provides comprehensive, culturally competent services to individuals detained in city jails and supports their successful reentry into the community. As Reentry Mentor, you will be a core member of the Fedcap TPT team with responsibility for targeted outreach, engagement, and participant support for individuals housed in Rikers Island Department of Correction (DOC) facilities. You will be the first point of contact for individuals eligible for transition planning, helping guide them into services and maintaining consistent follow-up to promote their ongoing engagement. You will support communication, scheduling, and pre-release service connection, and may accompany individuals to community providers upon discharge.
