Reentry and Continuity of Care
Leaving custody can be a difficult and uncertain time. Many people face challenges getting medical care, mental health treatment, substance use treatment, medications, housing, food, transportation, or other basic support after release. Losing access to care during this transition can put their health and safety at risk.
Wellpath believes care should not stop at the facility door. Planning for reentry and connecting to community services are critical steps in supporting health, stability, and successful return to the community.
Why Community Connections Matter
Continue medical, mental health, and substance use treatment
Get medications without gaps
Find primary care and behavioral health providers
Access housing, food, transportation, employment, and benefits
Reduce the need for emergency care or hospitalization
Having support in place can make the transition home safer and more manageable for individuals and their families.
