In2Out

In2Out works to reduce reoffending by bringing positive change into the lives of young people leaving custody, the majority aged 15 to 18, but up to 21 years of age, most of whom are returning to the north of England and the Midlands. We do this through one-to-one mentoring, via a network of salaried, regionally focused, Mentor Coordinators, who are supported by volunteer mentors. In the last 10 years In2Out has supported over 750 young people leaving custody.

We are making a difference. The national reoffending rate for 15-18 year olds within 12 months of release from custody is around 65%. This is a true reflection of the particular challenges facing this very vulnerable group, and equally the challenges of working with them to affect positive change. In 2023, the reoffending rate for young people working with In2Out was less than 25%.
