Mission: Grace place properties (gpp) provides a rehabilitation program for ex offenders upon their release from prison. The program includes room and board and is provided for a grace period of up to 60 days. Residents apply and are interviewed for acceptance and most residents come from faith based dorms in local prisons. There are approximately 50 residents on average and about 30 per cent are successfully integrated back into a productive role in society.
Programs: The entity has only one program service. The service is rehabilitation of ex-offenders. A grace period during which room and board is provided and attendance is required at programins sessions to rehabiliate ex-offenders. After the grace period, the resident pays weekly program service fees and gainful employment is expected during the first 120 days. Successful completion of the program requires completing the required programing sessions and becoming financially and functionally sufficient. Approximately 30 percent of our residents complete the program and are integrated into society in a productive role. The expenses were dedicated to maintaining and operating the facility and providing programing sessions anc counseling of residents.
