The District of Columbia Justice Grants Administration (JGA) will use their Fiscal Year 2014 State JAG funds to continue implementation of the District's JAG Reentry Initiatives with research-based, gender-specific program elements. JGA proposes to close the gap for citizens returning from incarceration with employment readiness programs consistent with the District's labor market; and wraparound services to ensure reduction in recidivism rates and increase in positive outcomes.
