The Center for Women in Transition assists women in the criminal justice system in making a successful transition to their families and communities through practicing and promoting restorative justice. Prison re-entry is becoming a critical issue, both at the state and national level. The Center has 12 years of experience providing these women with mentoring, transitional housing, case management and community referrals to aid them in successfully reintegrating into society.
In 2009, the organization served 299 women, a 47 percent increase from 2008 in total clients served. We saw remarkable successes in our clients, with an organization-wide recidivism rate of only 5.5 percent (down from 12 percent last year), compared to a state-wide recidivism rate of 23 percent.
