Measuring Our Impact
Evidence-based programs creating lasting change in our community
A Cycle We Can Break
40% of Marylanders released from incarceration return within three years (Maryland Department of Public Safety & Correctional Services). That isn't a story about willpower — it's a story about the first 72 hours, the first paycheck, the first safe night's sleep. Stability changes everything.
Goals We're Building Toward
We're a pre-launch initiative. These are the outcome benchmarks our programs are designed to hit — drawn from best-in-class reentry research — not measurements of people we've served yet.
Recidivism Reduction
Target: 73% lower 3-year recidivism than the Maryland baseline. Comprehensive case management addresses root causes and sustains support.
Housing Stability
Target: 92% of participants housed stably for 12+ months. Secure housing is the foundation every other outcome depends on.
Employment Success
Target: 85% placed into and maintaining employment. Job training and employer partnerships build the path to financial independence.
Family Reunification
Target: 68% of participants actively reconnecting with family. Restored relationships are crucial to long-term stability.
Where We Aim to Be in Five Years
Projected totals once programs are fully operational. Actual service numbers will be published quarterly once we begin enrolling participants.
Individuals Served Annually
Projected annual case load at full operating capacity across all five programs.
Lives Reached
Counting participants' family members and children — the people whose stability also shifts when reentry succeeds.
Projected Cost Avoidance
Estimated annual savings to Maryland taxpayers once outcomes hit target (based on state incarceration cost averages).
Transparent Reporting
Once participant enrollment begins, we'll publish measured outcomes — not projections — on a quarterly cadence.
Community Transformation
Creating safer, stronger communities for everyone
Neighborhood Revitalization
Participants become active community members, volunteering, mentoring, and contributing to neighborhood improvement initiatives.
Family Strengthening
Children have parents present in their lives, breaking the cycle of intergenerational incarceration and trauma.
Economic Growth
Employed participants pay taxes, support local businesses, and contribute to economic vitality in their communities.
Justice Reform
Our evidence-based model influences policy and demonstrates the effectiveness of rehabilitation over punishment alone.
Stigma Reduction
Success stories change community perceptions and reduce stigma against formerly incarcerated individuals.
Community Partnership
Collaboration with employers, landlords, and service providers creates a supportive ecosystem for reentry.
