How We Help

 

Reintegration Support

Returning to the community after incarceration can come with many challenges. Our Reintegration Support program helps individuals prepare for release and navigate the transition back into the community.


We provide practical support based on each person's needs and goals. This can include:

  • Housing referrals — connecting individuals with housing options and community resources.
  • Treatment referrals — helping individuals connect with addictions, mental health, and other treatment services when needed.
  • Identification support — assisting with obtaining identification and completing ID applications, which can be an important first step toward accessing housing, employment, and other services.
  • Ready4Release (R4R) — facilitating our Ready4Release program, which helps individuals prepare for their return to the community by connecting them with local resources and services.
  • One-on-one programming — meeting individually with clients to identify their needs, work through barriers, provide information and support, and connect them with appropriate community resources.


Our goal is to provide a familiar, supportive connection before and after release and help individuals take practical steps toward successful reintegration back into the community.
