Women of Color Who Have Experienced Incarceration Face Extraordinary Circumstances to Successful Reentry.

Formerly incarcerated people are nearly 10 times more likely to be homeless than those who have not experienced incarceration. Overall, formerly incarcerated women are almost twice as likely to experience housing insecurity than formerly incarcerated men.

Black women in particular encounter high barriers after release due to issues including higher unemployment rates and the highest rate of sheltered homelessness, nearly 4 times the rate of White men and twice as high as Black men (Couloute, 2018).

Per data published by the Prison Policy Initiative, among formerly incarcerated women, Black women were 60% more likely than White women to have experienced sheltered homelessness after release. Those 45 and older face the highest rates of housing insecurity.
