Description
The New Legacy Reentry Corporation is a faith based community organization that is committed to breaking the cycle of chronic recidivism for male ex-offenders who were previously incarcerated for nonviolent, nonsexual crimes. New Legacy provides a holistic approach that not only attends to the needs of the ex-offender who faces joblessness, homelessness, and hopelessness, as well as facilitating the reunification with family. Currently, our organization offers a twelve to twenty-four-month residential program that addresses the societal stigma and challenges that veteran and non-veteran ex-offenders face as they find substantive ways to integrate successfully back into mainstream society. The components are as follows: Spirituality, Apprenticeship and Employment Opportunities, Vocational Education, Mentoring/Coaching, Case Management/Support Services, Personal Development, Family and Life Skills Training, and Community Service.
