The New Jersey Scholarship and Transformative Education in Prisons Consortium (NJ-STEP) is an association of higher education institutions in New Jersey that
works in partnership with the New Jersey Department of Corrections and
State Parole Board, to (a) provide higher education courses for all
students under the custody of the State of New Jersey while they are
incarcerated, and (b) assist in the transition to college life upon
their release into the community. Our vision is that every person in
prison who qualifies for college have the opportunity to take college
classes while incarcerated and continue that education upon release.
