How has tech helped or hurt your reentry?

We are looking to gather stories about how since coming home you have used technology (websites, apps, software and/or hardware) to help you successfully reintegrate post release. We are also looking for stories about how tech has caused anxiety or been hard to connect with. Help us expand our advocacy. Share your story now.
