Reflecting a reduction of 17% for all Department of Justice programs, the Second Chance Act for 2011 has been reduced to $ 83 Millon from the $100 million budgeted for the Act in 2010. There is no word yet, whether there will be new funding for “Reentry Courts” as there was in 2010, or even continuation funds for Reentry Court programs that were funded under 2010 programs.
