At Gaining Freedom Incoporated we have a two-fold mission. First, we assist released felons reintegrate back into society, and second we provide a mentorship program for the teenagers of both released and incarcerated felons. We are looking for a trained and licensed therapist to assist with the emotional challenges that sometimes face the teenagers. Additionally, because we sometimes assist teenagers as they are released from incarceration themselves, we would like a trained therapist to assist in providing guidance in understanding the emotional support that will be needed. If you are looking for a rewarding opportunity that will not overwhelm you, and you possess qualifications, please reach out to us. We would love to hear from you.

Mission Statement
" We believe that we are all imperfect, and all make mistakes. Some mistakes are of a higher magnitude, and as a consequence, results in incarceration. However, our belief is that once the debt is paid, IT IS PAID! It is therefore the mission of GAINING FREEDOM INCORPORATED that once an individual has paid their debt, regardless of being male or female, to assist them in gaining their freedom mentally, economically, socially, and domestically. Once the legal debt has been paid, an individual should not indefinitely be imprisoned by it. "
Description
Our organization has a two-fold goal. Primarily we assist released felons reintegrate into society. Second, equally if not more important, we provide mentorship for the teenage children of both released and incarcerated felons, with the goal of assisting them to remain on a Straight Path to success in order to minimize the possibility of becoming a generational felon. If they are academically inclined we strive to assist them in securing financial assistance for college. If their goal is not to go to college, we strive to help them in whatever positive post high school vocation they choose. During the early teenage years, through high school we provide a mentorship program for them.
