THE NEED
The number of women in prison and parole in California has risen dramatically over the past two decades. Approximately one quarter of them are returned to Los Angeles County with the heaviest burden falling on low-income communities of Los Angeles. Once on the outside, many formerly incarcerated people find it very difficult to secure the most basic necessities of independent living – a job, permanent housing, and access to public resources and assistance. Successful reentry requires living wage jobs, housing, access to drug and alcholol rehabilitation, public benefits, health, and mental health care services, and reunification assistance.
A New Way of Life Reentry Project is a non profit organization that provides housing and reentry support to formerly incarcerated women and their children. A New Way of Life operates a total of five sober living homes, serving 50-60 women and children per year, and offers a wide range of support services to help facilitate a successful transition back to community life. To date, we have transformed the lives of over 400 women.

A New Way of Life Reentry Project is a registered 501©3 nonprofit. Our Tax ID number is 95-4782503. All donations are tax-deductible. Please confirm donation by 12/1/09 for printing purposes.
