MARION COUNTY, Ore. — Later this month, the community corrections division at the Marion County Sheriff’s Office will be launching the Resilience and Recovery Project. This new project involves the addition of peer mentors from the Pathfinder Network who will help community corrections clients navigate local resources that promote successful reentry and completion of supervision.

Through the use of trained peer support specialists, this new program will provide individual support, peer support groups, classes, workshops, action planning and more.

Funding for the Resilience and Recovery Project was obtained through the 2021 - 2023 Oregon Justice Reinvestment Initiative grant.
