The Petey Greene Program (PGP) and the Philadelphia Reentry Coalition (PRC) hosted the panel discussion titled “Tutoring in Diversion, Incarceration, and Reentry: The Continuum of Educational Programming,” on Wednesday, June 22, 2022, as part of Philadelphia Reentry Month. The panel explored how the PGP developed a continuum of educational programming model and what it looks like in practice in Philadelphia, where the PGP and its partners support learners during diversion, incarceration, and reentry. This event is relevant for educators, students, PRC members, and anyone working at an organization that is hoping to expand their continuum of services for people impacted by the criminal legal system.
The conversation brought together partners working at different points along the PGP’s continuum of educational programming. Panelists included Jordan King, Director of Juvenile Diversion Programs at the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office and Marcus Hall, Director of Workforce Development at Beyond Literacy.
