Support formerly incarcerated clients with non-clinical recovery programming: one-on-one addictions counseling, individual & group peer mentoring, support groups, acu-detox, cognitive behavioral change, and virtual reality; plus housing, employment and practical resources. The strength of this peer support model lies in a welcoming community of ?criminal justice insiders? who walked the same difficult path, but have now built a life rich with purpose.
