About the event:Rebound for Re-Entry is more than a basketball tournament — it’s an opportunity for our community to come together in support of second chances.
Hosted by Public Advocates in Community re-Entry (PACE), this annual 3-on-3 tournament raises funds that directly support employment services, case management, recovery support, mental health resources, and other life-changing programs for individuals who are just returning from incarceration and/or have been impacted by the criminal-justice system.
Every registration, sponsorship, volunteer, and donation helps remove barriers to success and provides hope for people working to rebuild their lives.
Whether you’re competing on the court, cheering from the sidelines, or supporting as a sponsor, you’re helping create stronger families, safer communities, and brighter futures.
Why it matters:At PACE, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to build a better future.
For more than 65 years, PACE has helped justice-involved individuals overcome barriers to employment, housing, mental health, recovery, and supported their long-term stability.
Rebound for Re-Entry helps fund these vital services while also bringing our community together to challenge stigma and celebrate the power of second chances.
When someone succeeds after incarceration, families become stronger, neighborhoods become safer, and our entire community benefits.
