Journey to New Life, Inc.

• our mission • journey to new life maximizes quality of life for men and women returning to the community from prison or other involvement with the justice system. • about • journey to new life, inc., was founded in 2013 after seven individuals, each with a substantial history and experience working with prisoner re-entry programs, came together to share experiences, discuss challenges and offer ideas. it was through those organic conversations that the group discovered some common factors that, when present together, created a particularly underserved — and at-greater-risk — segment of the ex-offender population. it’s the triple barrier. anyone re-entering the community after prison faces many roadblocks to success. but, for those dealing with the additional challenges of mental illness or prior trauma, substance abuse and a history of incarceration, the journey is even more complex. unfortunately, they had nowhere to turn for help. journey to new life was created to be that place.
