Join us for the National Reentry Network for Returning Citizens’ Annual Fundraiser Gala!

Join us on Friday, December 11, 2026, from 6:00–8:00 PM at 1200 U Street NW, Washington, DC, for an evening of connection, community, and purpose.

This fundraiser supports returning citizens as they navigate the critical transition from incarceration back into the community. Through peer-led support, job readiness, mentorship, financial education, resource navigation, and community-based programming, NRNRC helps individuals build stability, pursue their goals, and move forward with dignity.

Every dollar raised will directly strengthen programs that provide practical support and meaningful opportunities, including:

Job readiness and workforce development
Peer Navigator mentor–mentee connections
Financial literacy and economic mobility support
Assistance navigating identification, housing, employment, and other barriers
Community-building programs for returning citizens and their families
