Program areas at Pioneer Human Services
Enterprises: employment is key to building a stable life in the community after incarceration. That's why we started Pioneer industries in 1967. Today we operate multiple business lines that help support our social service programs while providing a training ground and work experience that promote a career trajectory for those we serve, and serve as a model to other businesses on how they can successfully employ formerly incarcerated individuals. Our business lines include manufacturing, distribution, food service and construction.
Housing: recognizing that housing is a vital to stability and is an area where people with criminal histories frequently face discrimination, Pioneer offers a range of affordable and service-enriched housing options across the state of Washington.
Treatment: Pioneer offers a range of treatment Services in the community including detox, outpatient and residential treatment options and within local jails to support recovery from substance abuse and mental health disorders. All of our Services are focused on meeting people where they are, understanding their individual needs, and developing a plan to support them as they work toward becoming healthy, productive members of our communities.
