Navigating Life After Incarceration

Understanding Justice Involvement
Justice involvement encompasses any interaction with the criminal justice system, from arrest through incarceration and post-release supervision. We understand that each person's journey is unique, and we tailor our support to meet individual needs.
Whether you're preparing for release, recently returned home, or years into your reintegration, we're here to support you. Our team includes individuals with lived experience who understand the challenges you face because they've walked the same path.
Breaking Down Barriers
Returning citizens face numerous barriers: employment discrimination, housing denials, loss of professional licenses, and social stigma. These obstacles are real, but they're not insurmountable. We work to remove these barriers through advocacy, education, and direct support.
Our approach combines practical assistance with systems-level advocacy to create lasting change. We don't just help individuals navigate broken systems—we work to fix those systems so future generations face fewer obstacles.
Keys to Successful Reentry
Research and experience show these factors are critical for successful reintegration
The first 72 hours and first 90 days after release are critical. We provide intensive support during this crucial transition period.
Housing, employment, and basic needs must be addressed before other goals can be pursued. We help establish this foundation.
Connection to positive influences, mentors, and peer support reduces isolation and increases success rates.
Rebuilding identity beyond past mistakes and finding meaningful purpose drives long-term success.
Practical skills in employment, relationships, financial management, and problem-solving are essential tools.
Regular check-ins, goal setting, and supportive accountability keep progress on track.
Led by Lived Experience
Our reentry services are informed and led by individuals with lived experience of incarceration and reintegration. This isn't just theory—it's real-world knowledge from people who have successfully navigated the same journey you're on. We understand because we've been there.
"The same struggles you're facing today, we faced yesterday. Let us help you write a different ending to your story."
