Abstract	The social, economic, political, historical, and racial context shaping the criminal justice system is complex and extensive. As a result, individuals who have been incarcerated face limited opportunities--particularly for education and training--both during and after incarceration. Historical investments in corrections and policies that prioritize punishment over prevention and rehabilitation have failed in improving public safety and have greatly marginalized low-income communities and communities of color. However, research has shown that correctional education and training can significantly improve outcomes by increasing employment prospects and reducing recidivism for those returning to society. These positive outcomes are leading to increased federal and state momentum to improve postsecondary access for prisoners and are lifting this issue higher on reform agendas. Nonetheless, the education and training needs of prisoners are far more complex than what traditional postsecondary education can meet and linking those needs to training that articulates to post-release opportunities is essential for successful reentry. Building on the theme of continuity from incarceration to reentry, these briefs highlight the continuous improvement stories of states that are moving toward this type of alignment. This brief focuses on Ohio. [For other briefs in this series, see ED582770 (Indiana) and ED582912 (California).] (ERIC).
