Over 25 years of experience in providing housing and supportive services
We feel that transitional housing is necessary when it comes to providing safety and stability. Supplied with the necessary tools and resources, individuals on parole can carve out their own way to success.
Approved Housing
Individuals who otherwise would remain incarcerated have a safe and stable housing option. This environment encourages accountability, independence, and self-reliance. With safe and stable housing individuals can turn their focus to other areas of their lives which may need attention.
Supportive Services
We offer various services to accommodate everyone’s needs. Starting with obtaining credentials, medical attention, preparing for employment and job placement. Help with managing finances such as a bank account and credit building or repair. Providing these services and resources is key to a solid foundation upon which an individual can build their future. This type of environment is a contributing factor to setting and achieving goals as you are with individuals who are in various stages of life after incarceration.
Life Skill Development
Aside from the essentials like housing and employment, our focus is also on personal growth and well-being. And this is why we have subject matter experts and professionals on hand to help guide individuals through the day-to-day decision making and how to overcome the obstacles they may encounter. To provide structure and encourage new healthy habits, we offer Problem Resolution, Communication and Life Skill classes.
Emotional and Social Well-Being
Incarceration can affect your mental and physical wellbeing. The experience has many fighting a lifelong battle to overcome the stigma of one wrong act or a lapse in judgement. Some are survivors of an abusive childhood, where their most essentials needs were neglected. They require a safe space where they can explore their emotions, heal, and grow. By developing healthy coping mechanisms individuals can witness their own transformation. And once they are ready, can reconnect with loved ones.
We are here for you and your loved ones. Helping you to navigate towards a new future.
We are your catalyst for a better tomorrow.

Testimonials
“Don’t know what to say to you other than I’m sorry. You helped me out so much and actually cared. You put up with my BS and you were still there. I am sorry for letting you down. Thank you for everything you have ever done for me, I mean it. I miss your crazy ass.”

“God is Good. Thank you for the good you helped me see in myself when I was at my worst. May God work things out.”
Christian
Previous Resident
“Thanks for everything you did for me. I wanted to thank you personally for all the things you did for me. I’m going to do my best to be a better person like you inspired me to do. You didn’t have to help me with clothing, food, or helping me get a great job making 2800 dollars a month but you did and it means the world to me. So THANK YOU.”

“Because of you and your program, since my release last December I have learned how to navigate parole, developed a more accurate understanding of my rights and responsibilities, learned how to find work, and more. I have had space and peace of mind needed to complete Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and in one week, pass on to level 2 of Sex Offender therapy. Moreover, now my wife and I have bought our first home and will be finally reuniting in days.”

“Mr. Amer, I want to thank you for your time and patience at your halfway house. No-one has ever given me a chance like that before. I might have another chance to come there again after I see the Parole Board, if you will have me.”
