Our Vocational Reentry Housing program offers Rapid Rehousing along with Vocational Training, ensuring individuals reentering the community after incarceration have a safe place to reenter, while also receiving vocational training geared towards establishing a career in Commercial Driving.

Participants in the program have the opportunity to secure employment that provides a livable wage upon completion, with an annual salary range between $85,000 and $130,000 in this career path.

Participants are provided with:

• Six-week training period with a $500 weekly stipend,
• $8,500 scholarship to Parker’s CDL education center
• Private instructor Wayne Lane: a successful trainer for formerly incarcerated survivors, himself a survivor of incarceration

In order to ensure successful reentry outcomes and long-term stability, Reentry Housing residents are required to participate in certain programming and receive specific services. House managers will work with residents who need accommodations to fully enjoy the benefits of services and programming. Program requirements and wrap-around stabilization services include:

Attend Monthly House Meetings: Residents are expected to attend House Meetings, which are held once a month. Here you will be updated on program information and activities. 

Community Engagement: Residents are encouraged and expected to participate in the community through healthcare, education, employment, personal development, community enrichment, and/or service projects for approximately thirty (30) hours per week.
