TREC is a higher education ecosystem for justice-impacted students. Our College in Prison program offers Metro State’s innovative Bachelor of Arts in Individualized Studies degree to students incarcerated at three Minnesota state prisons. Our Academic Reentry program provides academic and non-academic support that students use to successfully transition back into their communities while fulfilling their educational and career goals. Across both programs, TREC works to intervene in cycles of harm, disentangle students from the criminal legal system, and connect students with resources and opportunities that promote agency, community building, transformative learning, and restoration.
