About this data: figures come from the Ready for Reentry course on secure tablets in U.S. correctional facilities, refreshed hourly from aggregate platform reporting. Pipeline figures include only learners who chose to share their information for follow-up support; destinations, release dates, and interests are self-reported. To protect privacy, no names or identifying details are collected into this page, and counts of 1–4 are shown as a range. County shapes and names follow U.S. Census boundaries; answers that don't match a census county in this state are counted but never displayed as written.
