The Mission of the Michigan Prisoner ReEntry Initiative (MPRI) is to significantly reduce crime and enhance public safety by implementing a seamless system of services for offenders from the time of their entry to prison through their transition, community reintegration and aftercare in their communities.
The Vision of the Michigan Prisoner ReEntry Initiative is to reduce crime by implementing a seamless plan of services and supervision developed with each offender, delivered through state and local collaboration, from the time of their entry to prison through their transition, reintegration and aftercare in the community.
The Intensive Parole ReEntry Unit (IRU) was developed under the Michigan Prisoner ReEntry Initiative (MPRI) to assist prisoners in developing strategies that will enable them to successfully complete parole and become productive citizens within the community.
The program is voluntary and eligibility is
determined by the Parole Board. The Cooper Street Correctional Facility (JCS) in Jackson and the Huron Valley Complex-Women (WHV) in Ypsilanti, are currently designated as Intensive Re-entry Units.
