Project Rebound supports students who are formerly incarcerated, those who have been convicted, sentenced, and served time in a county, state, or federal correctional facility, as well as system-involved individuals who may have arrest histories, probation or court-mandated restrictions, diversion or alternative sentencing experiences, youth detention histories, or other system involvement that places them at risk of incarceration. The program is committed to helping these students access higher education and achieve academic and personal success.
