Every year more than 7,600 women are released from Maine prisons and jails. Having a criminal record can make it more challenging to find a job and stable housing. Some women struggle to regain custody of their children. Others lack emotional support as they confront feelings of inadequacy and isolation. But a Maine-based nonprofit called Reentry Sisters is trying to change that by building a community of incarcerated and formerly incarcerated women one sister at a time.

What happens when the educational opportunities for incarcerated learners are fundamentally changed by the passage of education reform legislation? Prior research has demonstrated that gains have been made in enrollment and transfer since the passage of the AB 705 among non-incarcerated learners, but little is known about how these reforms have impacted the experiences and outcomes of incarcerated learners. In this research brief, the authors present context for understanding the intersections between developmental education and higher education in prison in California, additional preliminary findings, and implications for research and practice.

Sitting among a sea of students in black caps and gowns at the University of Maine commencement ceremony last May, Victoria Scott was tense. Crowds make her anxious. A lot of things do. “Some of you took a straight path,” one of the speakers was saying. “Others took a few scenic detours.” For Scott, now 33, the word “detour” couldn’t begin to cover it.

This national landscape analysis represents the first comprehensive examination of public higher education systems’ role in prison education and reentry programs across the United States. Through 45 interviews spanning 18 states with higher education in prison (HEP) administrators, reentry program administrators, and justice-impacted students, this study reveals how systems support incarcerated and justice-impacted students from enrollment through their post-release campus transition. This research demonstrates that system-level coordination, support, and leadership are essential for building comprehensive and sustainable HEP programming throughout the state. HEP programs must be recognized as integral system components rather than siloed programs, and reentry services must be embedded within the system with adequate resources to address students’ educational and basic needs throughout their college careers.

Although education is recognized as a fundamental human right under international conventions such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), opportunities, particularly at the post-secondary level, remain scarce in practice. In many countries, only a very small proportion of incarcerated individuals participate in formal higher education programmes, despite the fact that a substantially larger share meets the eligibility criteria for such study. If we are serious about equity, this must change.

Ithaka S+R is excited to announce a new, three-year research project examining accessibility issues and disability services in higher education in prison programs. Made possible by funding from ECMC Foundation, this project will explore how accessibility considerations and disability services are implemented in carceral settings. It will also identify key barriers higher education institutions and correctional agencies face in providing effective support. By moving in three discrete phases designed to describe the problem landscape, document existing practices and service gaps, and collaboratively develop interventions, this project will advance field-wide knowledge and build the informal infrastructure to sustain learning and action well beyond its three year lifespan.

Starting July 1, Workforce Pell will extend Pell Grants to short-term training programs for the first time. That's a real opportunity for the 1.1 million people in state prisons, where the short, credential-focused format fits the time many students have inside. Whether they actually benefit depends on the proposed accountability rule now being finalized. This article outlines three targeted rule changes that would ensure Workforce Pell works for incarcerated students.

Internships are an important part of the college experience for many students, but a rare opportunity for students in college-in-prison programs. However, advances in remote work technology are expanding possibilities for incarcerated students to build out their resumes. Paid internships help students save money to support themselves and set them up to secure well-paying jobs after release, making it more likely that they will be able to break the cycle of incarceration. Read Erica Orta’s story in this article outlining Vera's experience hosting a paid internship for incarcerated learners.

A recent study of formerly incarcerated individuals reveals education as a form of self-care that drives resilience and a unique pathway out of the criminal justice system. Participants emphasize the need for robust reentry support, including housing and mentorship, to facilitate educational success. Key policy implications include expanding educational access, strengthening reentry programs, integrating education with employment, enhancing data collection, and maximizing federal funding. Investing in education for justice-impacted individuals is crucial for reducing recidivism and creating a more equitable society. Author note: Maine has joined Reentry 2030 (reentry2030.org), which could directly address some of the recommendations addressed in the article.

Michigan can show the country what it looks like to treat higher education in prison as a public good, one that strengthens families, communities, and the workforce. We know that not as a slogan, but as people who have had to build our lives on the other side of incarceration. We are both justice impacted, and we’ve both seen what happens when someone is finally offered a real opportunity to learn.

In the public imagination, “prison food” often evokes trays of bland and heavily processed meals that lack nutritional quality. Unfortunately, this stereotype reflects reality in many prisons today. Reports from advocacy groups describe ongoing problems with unsafe, ultra-processed food in correctional facilities, contributing to poor health outcomes and emotional distress. At the same time, the United States continues to have persistently high incarceration and recidivism rates. In response, a growing number of prison farm initiatives, garden programs, and justice-oriented food partnerships are using agriculture to support rehabilitation, build skills, and increase access to fresh and local foods inside and outside correctional settings.

Historically Black colleges and universities have long served communities most impacted by mass incarceration — though they’ve been slow to enter the prison education space. The HBCU Higher Education in Prison initiative is trying to change that. Led by Claflin University President Dwaun J. Warmack, the effort started in South Carolina. Five HBCUs are already operating prison education programs in the state: Claflin University, Benedict College, Denmark Technical College, Voorhees University, and Morris College. It’s the only such unified HBCU presence in the country, according to Warmack.

The reinstatement of Pell eligibility through the FAFSA Simplification Act in 2020 was a historic victory. However, funding alone cannot bring us out of the desert. Without colleges willing and prepared to teach behind the walls, the desert remains. As part of Claflin University’s focus on community development, the HBCU Higher Education in Prison Initiative was born to help address this challenge. Led by a coalition of HBCU presidents, formerly incarcerated scholars, and higher education in prison practitioners, our mission is clear: to address the higher-education-in-prison desert by equipping HBCUs to create and expand high-quality programs for incarcerated students.
