About the President

Quincy Whitt, retired Correctional Counselor III (Program Manager) founded Novel Reentry Consulting, LLC,  after retiring in 2023.

Novel was established after he experienced working for seven years as a Program Manager (Correctional Counselor III) in the City of Los Angeles, through the State of California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR). He managed a Male Community Reentry Program (MCRP)  in the South-Central District of Los Angeles in conjunction with the Amity Foundation.  MCRP is a voluntary reentry program designed for eligible men who have no more than two years of their prison term remaining to serve. Currently, this allows for qualifying men who were convicted of a crime, to complete their remaining sentences in the community.

He began working for CDCR in February 1996 and began his tenure as a Correctional Officer and Sergeant before joining the Correctional Counselor series.  After successfully working years in various supervisory positions, in 2016, he earned a promotion to Program Manager, where he oversaw a variety of community-based rehabilitative services that helped with housing, education, employment, mental health, medical, and social support in addition to substance use disorders. Additionally, his leadership was instrumental in the effective transition of the inmates back into society.  Thus, greatly decreasing the rate of recidivism. 

Prior to advancing to the position of Program Manager, he worked as a Correctional Counselor II at the California Rehabilitation Center in Norco. He also held the position of Correctional Counselor I at Kern Valley State Prison in Delano, California and the Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility in San Diego, California.
