Volunteers of America- MN/WI Residential Re-entry Centers


  • Mission

    Starting over isn’t easy for any of us. When people are released from incarceration, many experience significant challenges looking for work, housing, positive connections in the community, and access to medical care and mental/chemical health services. This leads to a population that is more at-risk to fail and return to incarceration. We provide a place of transition within a safe, positive environment that enables residents to stay successful once their prison sentence ends. By partnering with our RRCs, correctional agencies can engage with a network of housing, monitoring, and reentry services to help individuals as they begin their transition back into community and reduce recidivism going forward.

    About Us
