Crime and Punishment: When someone is convicted of a crime, they serve their time. But without opportunities for housing, people continue to be punished long after they complete their sentence. There is a large justice-involved population who become good employees, good tenants, good neighbors, and an integrated part of the community. Learn about the housing options and limitations and how to create better, safer, more stable communities by creating housing opportunities for this population.
