For those who are eligible for the sponsorship program: We offer up to 6 months of free housing to work-ready offenders who remain in prison after a release has been authorized. The goal of the program is to enhance the released offenders’ ability to remain crime free once re-entering society from the prison system. Individuals are supervised by their Community Supervision Officer and will be provided with nutrition and food assistance and supportive services. The re-entry housing program has no cost to the individual for the first 6-months, however, they must have prior approval from a Community Supervision Officer in the State of Georgia.

Our Second Chance program focus’ on rehabilitating offenders and providing them with an alternative to jail and prison. Alternative sentences involve court supervision and the offender must abide by certain court ordered restrictions while released in our program. These conditions may range from weekly communication to more intensive levels of supervision such as random drug screenings or home confinement. In some instances, the courts may require an offender to wear a GPS and/or an alcohol monitoring device to ensure compliance with their conditional release. If you’re a first offender or was charged with a nonviolent crime, you may be eligible for our Second Chance Diversion Program
