The Center for Women in Transition was created in 1997 after four women volunteering in prison ministry noticed a cycle of recidivism. The volunteers met with incarcerated women to identify root causes of their returns to incarceration and discovered the following challenges: lack of safe, affordable housing; lack of access to services such as substance use treatment, job placement, food, and transportation assistance; and lack of positive social support. The system was structured for failure. The Center was formed specifically to ​address these challenges.

We provide immediate, effective, and comprehensive employment services exclusively to women who have recently returned home from incarceration. We believe that everyone, regardless of their past, deserves the chance to shape a stronger future for themselves, their family, and their communities.
