Our Projects Have Real Impact
Creating stability and opportunity, one home at a time.
In NY, the recidivism rate is over 50% for formerly incarcerated men and women who do not maintain employment over a three-year period.
Our projects create more than just housing—they provide second chances. By hiring justice-impacted individuals and offering homes to Section 8 families, we’re fostering stability, growth, and lasting change.
Continuing Our Mission
Our work doesn't stop here. We're committed to expanding our reach, creating more affordable housing, and offering more opportunities for formerly incarcerated individuals. Learn how we're moving forward and how you can support the future of Restorative Housing Organization.
Increased Reach with the Help of Our Partners
Our impact grows with the support of our dedicated partners, whose contributions enable us to help more individuals and transform more lives. Together, we’re expanding opportunities and helping to foster community.
