North Carolina's Local Reentry Councils  were established in 2018 to reduce the barriers to reentry by providing case managers and a network of needed services to help people transition from prison.    Currently, there are  reentry councils in 20 of North Carolina's 100 counties.    Orange County has one of the oldest and strongest reentry councils in the state.  

In 2023, Judy Van Wyk and April Barber partnered to create a podcast about the many issues people face when transitioning from prison. Van Wyk is a longtime video producer and criminal justice advocate. April Barber received a life sentence when she was 15. After more than 31 years, she had her sentence commuted by Governor Cooper. She was released March 24, 2022.
