Enabling transition to successful living
Prodigal helps valuable individuals restore broken relationships, change their future and the direction of their lives for the next generations.
We help ex-offenders obtain legitimate employment, create positive social networks while developing healthy daily routines, and rejoin their families. These are significant factors that reduce recidivism, advance the economy overall by reducing the unemployment & crime rates, costs to taxpayers, and in-turn make the Commonwealth a better place to live.
Addressing fundamental lifestyle needs
We offer comprehensive, purposeful assistance in four key areas:
Physical (Clothing, Hygiene, Food, Safe Shelter, Medical Care, State ID, Birth Certificates), Emotional (Drug & Alcohol Counseling, 12-Step Programs, Parenting, Life Skills, Mentors, Mental Health Counseling), Social (Volunteer Opportunities, Weekend Furloughs, Family Visits, BBQ’s, Birthday Parties, Annual Christmas Parties) and Spiritual (Bible Study, Mission Trips, Retreats).
