by Kerry L. Shipman (Author)

Pathway to Renewal (P2R): A 26-Week Guide to Reentry, Recovery, and Life After Struggle is a trauma-informed, real-world workbook designed for individuals rebuilding their lives after incarceration, homelessness, addiction, or major life disruption. Created by Dr. Kerry L. Shipman-a behavioral health executive, educator, and justice reform advocate-P2R combines lived experience with clinical insight to offer a structured journey toward healing, stability, and personal growth.

Unlike traditional programs, P2R is raw, relatable, and built for people who have faced real-life barriers. Each of the 26 weekly modules includes practical assignments, mental health check-ins, life skills exercises, and self-reflection tools to help participants take ownership of their goals, finances, housing, mindset, and more.

Whether used individually, with a therapist or case manager, or in a group setting, this guide is ideal for transitional housing programs, reentry initiatives, peer support services, and community-based recovery efforts.

• A structured weekly plan for recovery and reentry

• Tools for housing, employment, and financial stability

• Space for self-reflection, growth tracking, and personal storytelling

This isn't just a workbook. It's your reset. Your plan. Your second chance in motion.
