WORKING TO REDUCE RECIDIVSM!
Day 41 exists because 95% of the 123,263 men incarcerated in Texas will be released. Without support services, two-thirds will return to prison within three years.
We have secured a home in Harris County to welcome several returning citizens home from prison. Here, they can live, find healing, and transition into a life of freedom.
Your donation is not just a financial contribution. It's a key that helps us turn a house into a home for the vulnerable in our society. Your generosity is a beacon of hope. Because of people like you, we are not just breaking but shattering the cycle of recidivism for generations to come.

EDUCATION
Literacy, the cornerstone of success, is a skill that transcends age and background. It equips individuals to excel academically, engage socially, tackle challenges, secure employment, and nurture a family. Our mission is to empower learners, spanning from juveniles to senior citizens at the Young unit.
Through extensive collaboration with volunteers, we will enhance the quality of life for incarcerated and at-risk men, women, and youth.
