Description

GOSO is a reentry program serving justice-involved young men aged 16-24 in the New York City area. Over the past ten years we have proven that early intervention within the criminal justice system, along with supportive counseling, educational support, vocational training, and workforce development works to reduce recidivism and help our participants become contributing members of their communities. GOSO’s clinically-trained staff provide individual and group counseling, as well as coaching and advocacy to inspire our participants and assist them in changing the trajectory of their lives.
