PLANNED PROGRAM · GOODE FATHERHOOD
Coming Home
Rebuilding bonds. Renewing purpose.
A proposed reentry pathway for fathers returning after incarceration, with a focus on stability, career readiness, and rebuilding family trust at a child’s pace.
Register interest
In development
A clear picture of what’s next.
Adult fathers preparing for release or navigating reentry, and their families when contact is safe, permitted, and wanted.
Program enrollment, dates, staffing, fees, and service availability are not confirmed. These are proposed offerings, not currently bookable services.
THE PROGRAM VISION
What this pathway brings together.
Family reconnection
Child-centered preparation for communication and rebuilding trust, consistent with safety needs and court orders.
Career readiness
Proposed employment planning, skills development, and referral pathways; no job placement is promised.
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT PATHWAY
Coming home takes more than an address.
The longer-term concept connects housing partners with parenting education, employment support, case coordination, and family reconnection. Housing licensure, contracts, facilities, and admissions have not been confirmed. This page is not a housing application.
Correctional referral partnerships
Explore agreements with correctional social workers, clinicians, reentry teams, and community providers. Share identifiable information only through an appropriate consent and secure referral process.
Intake and case management
Draft transparent entry criteria: adult eligibility, voluntary participation, service-area fit, support needs within capacity, and a safe, individualized transition plan. Professional prescreening would inform review, not guarantee admission.
Coordinated support
Explore an in-house case-management model and partnerships with qualified peer-support and clinical providers. Medicaid eligibility, service authorization, provider enrollment, and housing costs need separate review.
Transitional-housing RFP and proposal readiness
A specific currently open RFP has not been verified for this initiative. Before applying, the team needs the official solicitation, current deadline and amendments, eligible applicant requirements, a costed staffing/facility plan, insurance, safeguarding, and procurement review. No application or funding award is claimed.
