HOW WE SERVE: REENTRY
MAX-OUT REENTRY( M. O. R. E.)
M. O. R. E. is a collaborative program between the Georgia Department of Community Supervision, Georgia Department of Corrections, and Georgia State Board of Pardons and Paroles, designed to provide max-out offenders with a progressive transition back into society.
In 2013, M. O. R. E. was implemented in Georgia’ s 13 transition centers. M. O. R. E allows for statutory and board mandated max-out prisoners to relocate from a prison bed to intensive community supervision in a transition center up to 18 months before the completion of their prison sentence.
The success of this program is due to the guidance M. O. R. E. counselors provide to participants, helping pave the way for them to find success as they reenter their communities. During their last months in incarceration, M. O. R. E. participants live in a Georgia Department of Corrections’ transition center. While under intensive supervision, they have the opportunity to:
• Work and pursue employment
• Access mental health and substance abuse services
• Obtain their driver’ s licenses
• Find stable post-incarceration housing
