RECHANCE
Rehabilitation approaches for providing former prisoners with personal development and society entry CHANCEs.
RECHANCE proposes resources, tools and training programmes that work to empower former prisoners and combat the social obstacles that they face due to stigmatisation and social exclusion. Throughout the course of the RECHANCE project, project partners from Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Greece, Ireland, and Italy are working with former prisoners to offer curriculums, resources and tools that will support them with their reintegration into society on personal, social, and professional levels.
The RECHANCE project provides a curriculum, learning components toolbox, training digital tools, and an Adaptation Guidelines Handbook that offers various resources for former prisoners. Through these tools and an e-learning platform, the target group will be able to improve their competencies in life skills development, ICT skills, communication, networking, stress management, responsibility, time management, conflict resolution and social survival.
