We cultivate stronger communities by creating opportunities to realize second chances and reduce recidivism through strategic partnerships with:
Operation New Hope plans to expand our Ready4Release, Ready4Work, Ready4Success, and Ready4Change programs to additional locations around the state to meet the needs of the 27,000+ people released from Florida prisons every year. As we expand into new communities, we will build on existing relationships and foster new community coalitions. This time-tested strategy will allow us to fully understand the unique needs of each region and develop relationships necessary to generate additional philanthropic funds to match state support.
By building a Statewide Reentry Network, we connect returning citizens to their community and motivate program participants to become productive, responsible citizens saving taxpayers millions of dollars by avoiding repeated cost of incarceration and lost tax revenue.
