Each prisoner’s sentence is a temporary measure aimed at meeting certain societal goals.  It should also be aimed at the long-term objective of reintegration into the community.

Far too many are returning ill prepared to take their place in society as productive citizens.   Resources in the communities to which most will returned are already stretched to the limit! Citizens like yourselves must play a greater role to insure that the revolving door is closed.  Help us!  See the services we offer and ask how you might join our team!

 

       

                   

Mass incarceration is the human and civil rights issue of the twenty first century!  Far too many Americans are going to prison needlessly.        

Far too many are returning ill prepared to take their place in society as productive citizens.   Resources in the communities to which most will returned are already stretched to the limit! Citizens like yourselves must play a greater role to insure that the revolving door is closed.  Help us!  See the services we offer and ask how you might join our team!
