There are many reentry services and supports to help you or a loved one have a successful reentry after incarceration. Read on for a list of these resources.

NC Guidebook for Incarcerated Veterans
The NC ID Project
A successful reentry starts with an ID. A state-issued ID Card can open up access to housing, benefits, jobs, and more. DRNC is helping people recently released from prison get an ID from DMV.
NC SOAR Works!
NC SOAR Works! offers free assistance to eligible adults who are homeless or at risk of homelessness to apply for SSI/SSDI disability benefits. SOAR caseworkers are specially trained to assist with the applications and have a high approval rate – 4 times higher than cases completed outside of SOAR. In North Carolina, the NC Coalition to End Homelessness administers the SOAR Program.
