SETTING THE NATIONAL STANDARD

National Credential for Peer Reentry Professionals.

Built by and for people with lived experience.

The most powerful reentry support comes from someone who's made the journey themselves. The National Peer ReEntry Professional Certification (NPRPC) is the first national credential built on that truth.

What is the NPRPC?

To earn this certification, candidates must have lived experience with incarceration. That's not a barrier — it's the foundation.

Built on trauma-responsive, wellness-focused principles developed by a multi-state advisory committee, curriculum experts, and researchers.
