Christopher Watler is the Project Director of the Harlem Community Justice Center where he oversees the operations of the Harlem Parole Reentry Court and Upper Manhattan Reentry Task Force.
Chris blogged from the BJA sponsored “Reentry Court Focus Group” at the NADCP Conference in Boston, in June of this year. I just came across his article, “Drug Court Conference Features Reentry Courts”, in the blog, “Re-Thinking Reentry” and thought it presented a very thoughtful and cogent description of the different reentry court models and the promise of reentry courts. One important point Chris makes is that “Reentry Courts must show results over the next three to five years to justify their role in the national community safety infrastructure”.
