The REBAR program of the San Bernardino County Public Defender's Office is designed to provide legal, social, and practical support through four sub-programs: Re-Entry Assistance Program at Day Reporting Centers and other community re-entry events, Community Outreach, Proposition 47 team, and the Post Release Community Supervision (PRCS) team. The goal of the program is to improve re-entry outcomes for adult clients in the criminal justice system and to reduce the number of people who return to the system.
