HOUSING SUPPORT FOR FEMALES
REINTEGRATING INTO SOCIETY
We aim to work with females before they are released from prison to identify a path to short-term and long-term housing. Beyond providing support with housing searches in Hennepin and Ramsey Counties, placement, and maintenance, we aim to offer a holistic approach to serving individuals by helping them maintain their housing stability. This approach includes focus areas in holistic healing, harm reduction, community and family reintegration, and skill and employment development and support.
