WHY DONATE?

• Over 600,000 men and women are released from state and federal prisons each year.
  
  
• Stricter sentencing laws, along with budget cuts, mean felons are less prepared for life outside prison than ever before.
  
  
• When released from prison in Minnesota, ex-offenders are given $200 to get back on their feet.
  
  
• 67% end up back in prison within the first three years. This is called recidivism. (US Department of Justice)
  
  
• Recidivism (returning to prison) among active FreedomWorks participants is rare: only 3% have returned to prison (2006 to the present).

Why the FreedomWorks Organization Works

• FreedomWorks helps break the cycle of recidivism by providing assistance for physical needs such as housing, food, education, transportation and employment.
  
  
• FreedomWorks helps break the cycle of recidivism by providing assistance for emotional needs with support groups for individuals and families, and a mentoring/accountability program that matches each participant with a trained mentor.
  
  
• FreedomWorks helps break the cycle of recidivism by providing assistance for the spiritual needs of the participant and his family. We believe that the only way to true restorative change and transformation comes through a relationship with Jesus Christ.

The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners.  Isaiah 61:1 NIV
