FreedomWorks
purchases building for Welcome Back Center and Freedom
House!
Faithful supporters responded to FreedomWorks'
vision to provide housing and support
services for former prisoners. FreedomWorks
successfully closed on a property located at 3559 Penn Avenue in North
Minneapolis.
The Welcome Back Center, located on
the lower level, is a safe, stable environment where men are
supported as they tackle reentry issues unique to former
prisoners. FreedomWorks helps the men develop a plan to find
employment, participate in discipleship classes, reconnect with
family, learn financial responsibility, and become productive
citizens.
The Freedom
House, located on the upper
level, provides housing for 8 men. These former
prisoners are primarily men who have completed the
in-prison phase of the InnerChange Freedom Initiative (IFI),
Prison Fellowship’s 18-month, faith-based program operating inside
Lino Lakes prison. Serving with IFI, FreedomWorks’ staff and
volunteers use this place to assist these newly released men who
are seeking accountability as they learn and refine life
skills.
