​Restorative Justice is an inside and outside of the prison walls assistance and supportive program based out of our Midlands Office. Since 2016, our programs provide supportive services to help recently released citizens start fresh. As a direct result of this program and our community partners the returning citizens recidivism rate for was down from 33% to 17% in the state of South Carolina.

Our purpose is to help ex-offenders who are predisposed to homelessness and indigence to identify and address their needs and problems prior to release. Restorative Justice will be the tool to help the participants regain their relationships with their families, their communities, and the professional world in which they live.

​

Once a month Restorative Justice holds a Redemption Day for re-entry individuals providing community supports and resources.
