The National Institute of Corrections reports that the number of female inmates is increasing significantly and female inmates must overcome unique social, emotional, and physical challenges that impede their ability to integrate smoothly back into society following a period of incarceration.

The need for a 24:7 year-long transition program is excellent in both counties as there are few, if any, programs available. Many women leave jail or prison with no place to go, no transportation, job, formal job training, source of income, or functional support group and often have less than a high school education. Many of them return to jail or prison because they are ill-equipped to deal with the stresses of daily life in the community often including probation requirements. Many women are experiencing trauma, abuse, and trafficking and need a safe place.

The 24:7 Ministry would provide a safe residential place for women receptive to transformation, enable them to discover the healing needed for personal woundedness, promote personal accountability, and provide continued education, on-the-job training, and employment.
