What is Recidivism?
Recidivism means literally “a falling back” and usually implies “into bad habits” (Webster). Recidivism occurs when a person returns back to behaviors or lifestyles that have previously resulted in them being entangled with the judicial system and ultimately results in them experiencing seasons of probation, juvenile detention and even incarceration.
Our goal is to provide a safe and stable therapeutic environment for Juveniles/Youth that have unfortunately found themselves involved within the judicial system. Our goal also includes the redirecting of their lives toward a path of purpose and productivity, while simultaneously interrupting the unfortunate existence of the school and community pipeline to prison.
