Housing Empowerment for Homeless Families
OUR HOUSING PROGRAMS EMPOWER HOMELESS, FORMERLY INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS AND THEIR FAMILIES THE OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD BETTER FUTURES THROUGH STABLE AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING. BY PROVIDING LOW-THRESHOLD ACCESS TO SUPPORTIVE EMERGENCY AND TRANSITIONAL HOUSING AT THE FORTUNE ACADEMY ("THE CASTLE"), SUPPORTIVE PERMANENT HOUSING AT CASTLE GARDENS AND THROUGH OUR SCATTER-SITE HOUSING PROGRAM, WE MEET BOTH THE IMMEDIATE AND LONG-TERM NEEDS OF OUR CLIENTS. PARTICIPATING CLIENTS ARE ABLE TO TAKE THE FIRST STEPS ON THEIR JOURNEY TOWARDS BECOMING POSITIVE, SELF-SUFFICIENT MEMBERS OF SOCIETY WITH THE FULL SUPPORT OF FORTUNE'S REENTRY SERVICES. IN FY2023, WE SERVED 216 SCATTERED-SITE CLIENTS, 94 CLIENTS AT THE FORTUNE ACADEMY, AND 64 ACTIVE SUPPORTIVE HOUSING CLIENTS AT CASTLE GARDENS. MOST CLIENTS LEAVING OUR TRANSITIONAL HOUSING WENT ON TO SUCCESSFUL PERMANENT HOUSING IN THE COMMUNITY WHILE CONTINUING TO ENGAGE IN THE ARRAY OF SUPPORT SERVICES OFFERED.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2022 – Jun 30, 2023Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$19.2MAlternatives to Incarceration Programs
OUR ATI PROGRAMS REDUCE THE PRISON AND JAIL POPULATIONS, SAVE TAXPAYERS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, AND EACH YEAR HELP HUNDREDS OF MEN AND WOMEN LEARN HOW TO LEAD CRIME-FREE, PRODUCTIVE LIVES. CLIENTS PARTICIPATING IN OUR ATI PROGRAMS ARE STILL UNDER CRIMINAL JUSTICE SUPERVISION WHILE IN THE COMMUNITY, BUT THEY ALSO RECEIVE THE LIFE-STABILIZING SERVICES THEY DESPERATELY NEED. THOSE WHO COMPLETE THEIR PROGRAM SUCCESSFULLY RECEIVE SENTENCES THAT REQUIRE NO FURTHER INCARCERATION, INCLUDING PROBATION AND COMMUNITY SERVICE. IN FY2023, WE SERVED 323 PARTICIPANTS IN OUR ATI PROGRAMS AND SUCCESSFULLY GRADUATED 83% OF CLIENTS ELIGIBLE FOR COMPLETION.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2022 – Jun 30, 2023Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$14.1MMental Health and Substance Abuse Services
