Reentry Services
Bristol Station RRC offers residential reentry/transitional housing services for adults (males & females) who are transitioning out of incarceration or who are under parole, probation or problem-solving court supervision. Comprehensive reentry services offered are guided by the Risk/Need/Responsivity principles which dictate the degree and type of individualized services provided to each individual.
Bristol Station RRC offers individuals safe, stable housing and support from staff 24-hours a day, 7 days a week. Once the individual arrives to Bristol Station, they are assigned a resident handbook which outlines the rules, regulations and program requirements. The individual is assigned a case manager who completes an assessment to identify risks, needs and responsivity factors which guide the development of the individualized program plan. Family members, natural supports and supervision officers are encouraged to participate in the program planning process.
Bristol Station participants are provided weekly case management services to assist in obtaining working documents, obtaining employment, applying for benefits, resource referral and transition planning. Program groups offered include:
• Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT)
• Personal Growth/Family Reunification

Accountability is a critical part of the daily structure at Bristol Station. We utilize a range of procedures to ensure the safety of the community, staff and residents. Some of the accountability measures include video surveillance systems, regular headcounts, searches and drug testing.
