Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Crime & Law, Job Training, Mental Health, Rehabilitation Services for Offenders, Residential Mental Health Treatment, Substance Abuse Prevention
Mission: The mission of Rebuild Resources is to help addicts and alcoholics be sober, self-sufficient and of service by providing meaningful, transitional employment in business enterprises we own and operate. These enterprises provide a safe, sober, supportive, but non-enabling environment for recovery, and serve as the economic engines which sustain our work.
Results: Over 1,000 successful graduates since 1984.
Direct beneficiaries per year: 50-75
Geographic areas served: Twin Cities Metropolitan Area
Programs: The organization provides meaningful transitional employment to recovering people who want to turn their life around. These individuals remain in the organization's employ for up to six months. During this time, they work towards self-sufficiency, build a job history and work reference, gain tangible skills, work on their recovery program and develop the personal capacity to be of value to an employer. Then the organization helps them secure a more permanent, higher-wage job in the community and makes room for the next candidate. The organization's goal is to help people maintain sobriety and become self-sufficient and of service while interrupting the larger cycle of addiction, joblessness, poverty and incarceration. 98 individuals benefited from the program in 2011. Over 1,100 recovering individuals have graduated from the program since its founding in 1985 with a measured success rate of sixty-eight percent and a social return of nearly half a million dollars per successful graduate.
