Crosspoint staff management holds none of it's core values for Residents who are just released from federal prison and served there time, continuing to allow such a place to run up tax dollars without correcting management's obligations will always be a failure to the community itself as they only treat these residents as a paycheck and not people who can be valuable to the society I've witnessed myself the poor attention to detail that's offered which is outdated opportunities promised and child-like respect given to residents who should be fed positive energy to sustain motivation and interest to push through what could create model citizens I was so distraught of the poor attentiveness of staff that I will be protesting changes within this facility or that it forfeits there federal contract to house released inmates who deserves a chances to be great

Nonprofit Overview
Mission: Crosspoint exists to build safer and stronger communities by empowering individuals to lead productive lives.
Programs: During this fiscal year crosspoint served 758 residents and provided services to 166 outpatient clients. Residential corrections programs include referrals from the federal bureau of prisons, u. S. Probation and u. S. Pretrial services. Crosspoint provides a structured residential reentry center (rrc) environment for individuals referred by these agencies. Accountability is the foundation for this service model. Residents are held accountable for their behavior and progress throughout the program while staff is accountable for adhering to procedures that promote public safety by monitoring and managing resident activity in the community. Every resident undergoes assessment and individualized program planning. After a short in-house orientation period the resident receives additional privileges which allow him/her to become further integrated into the community. Measures of program progress include obtaining employment, development of a realistic budget, improving family and community support systems, remaining drug and alcohol free, and the development of a stable residential plan. The crosspoint experience also includes group programs that address thinking errors, life skills needs and employment skills. These programs helps reduce recidivism and the attendant societal and economic costs by utilizing integrated, evidence-based tools and processes. Crosspoint strives to forge the essential alliance between criminal justice supervision, community service providers and other community stakeholders to provide our clients with the resources and guidance necessary to lead productive lives and achieve restoration of citizenship. Community residential programs include a program for homeless veterans under contract with department of veterans affairs' healthcare for homeless veterans (hchv) program. This housing-first model offers residents a stable living environment from which to address physical and behavioral health needs through the dva and to build the economic resources to transition into a stable living situation in the community. Community residential programs also includes a recovery support home for women beginning recovery, diversion programs for victims of human trafficking facing prostitution charges and for low level offenders with mental health and/or addictions problems. Each of these populations benefit from a stable, safe and professionally staffed setting that facilitates access to community resources with support that helps ensure compliance with court requirements. Community outpatient programs are centered on a contract with the federal bureau of prisons community treatment services (cts). This program offers rrc residents licensed outpatient treatment for both addictions and mental health problems. These services can be vital in helping these individuals successfully transition from incarceration to a productive life in the community. Clients receive group, individual, and family education/counseling. The outpatient programs also offers services under a grant from the state of texas for veterans, their families and caregivers. These individual, group and family services are available to both honorably discharged veterans as well as those with less than honorable discharges.
