Focus Reentry

The One Stop Program does both street outreach and direct housing services. Street outreach is done daily at community events, indoor spaces, and inside the jail. Services during outreach include providing basic needs such as clothing, hygiene and bus passes. We also provide critical resources including Medicaid and SNAP enrollments, and smartphones for access to remote services. OSS direct housing services include prioritizing incarcerated people for housing through the VISPDAT system, enrolling clients in the HCV housing lottery, connecting clients to bridge housing, assisting with rental application documents and attending hearings when background is an issue.

The Team 72 program provides transportation for clients released from incarceration for the first 72 hours so that they can connect with critical resources that promote successful reentry.

The Mentoring Program addresses recidivism risks by providing inmates with services that include pre-release mentoring for a minimum of six weeks the development of an action plan to identify critical and basic needs once released immediate transportation the day of release to secure immediate shelter, obtain identification, access mental health services, locate substance abuse treatment, and report to all court-ordered appointments and ongoing support and mentorship for a minimum of six months post-release.
