The Billings Re-entry Initiative Coalition (BRIC) is a collaboration of community, government, and business leaders, supported by STEP, Inc., that promotes empowerment and self-efficacy of formerly incarcerated individuals. The Coalition pursues the vision of a safer community and reduced recidivism. BRIC raises awareness on fundamental yet complex issues such as housing, employment, transportation, and resources that impact the success of formerly incarcerated individuals returning to community life. Through strong community connections and partnerships, BRIC strives to foster and create meaningful opportunities for everyone who is seeking successful re-entry, and the people who care about them.
