Project Rebound is a CSU-wide student support program for students with lived experience being formerly incarcerated, existing on 20 of the 22 CSU campuses. Cal State East Bay's Project Rebound Program is modeled after the original Project Rebound program started by the late Professor John Irwin at San Francisco State in 1967. Project Rebound at CSUEB was started in 2022 and provides a safe, supportive, accessible, and stimulating space for students who have lived experience being incarcerated to access services that enable them to apply, persist, and succeed in their academic, extracurricular, and career endeavors. Project Rebound Scholars contribute in significant ways to our campus community, and they play a leadership role in Project Rebound and its peer support network. Project Rebound works with these students to ensure they acquire the knowledge and skills of a university education, enhance their capacity for civic engagement and community leadership, secure meaningful and gratifying employment, empower themselves and their families, and ultimately make stronger and safer communities.

The person in this position plays a critical role in shaping housing policies, expanding access to equitable housing opportunities, and representing Project Rebound across campus, community, and systemwide settings. The Coordinator will also serve as the primary contact for Rebound students living in these housing settings and will provide ongoing case management, life skills coaching, and community-building support.
