Since 1999, Exodus Transitional Community has been dedicated to empowering justice-impacted individuals through reentry programs, advocacy, and support. Learn more about our journey and impact.

OUR MISSION:

Exodus heals people and communities impacted by the carceral system through dignity-centered, trauma-informed care and services.

OUR VISION:

We envision a world where systems of harm are replaced by communities of care

Our Approach:

  • INDIVIDUALIZED PEER MENTORSHIP AND CASE MANAGEMENT

    • “We meet you where you are.”

    • Starting with the intake, our experienced case managers guide participants through the programming they need, at the pace they require. 

  • PIONEERS AND EXPERTS IN TRAUMA HEALING

    • “You matter.” “WE will help you.”

    • Our team members are highly credentialed practitioners in innovative, evidence-based, trauma-informed care and treatment.

  • DIGNITY-CENTERED CULTURE OF LIVED EXPERIENCE 

    • 80% of our staff are system-impacted. We have an unshakable belief that your past does not define your future.

    • Dignity-centered means every person who walks through our doors is met as a full human being—not a case file or a conviction—by a team that knows firsthand what it means to need a second chance.

  • COMMUNITY COLLABORATION 

    •  “I am because WE ARE.”

    • By engaging with supportive allies and organizations and contributing to projects that uplift our neighborhoods, we form new communities and break the cycle of isolation and exclusion. 

  • UNRELENTING ADVOCACY 

    • “We’ll never stop.”

    • We fight daily not only for the people we serve but also for reforms that will make our carceral system more fair.
