Transitioning Offenders Program

Transitioning Offenders Program (TOP) database of which I have a copyright. TOP connects with public and private organizations in each community throughout Washington State. The resources and services we contact work with men, and women transitioning from incarceration. Our unique approach, is to find the organizations that will work with these offenders 6 month prior to leaving the prison system. We each offender to develop a their own personal release plan enabling them a way to find the resources they need in the community they are returning to. These resources include housing, food, clothing, employment, and treatment.

All resources are updated every 6 months to a year depending on the service. The resources are for all those involved in the transition of men and women leaving incarceration, including their families.

We have help over 15,000 of these men and women successfully return to their communities from incarceration.. The Transitioning Offenders Program (TOP) has over 7,000 public and private agencies in every community in Washington State that work with felons. We have begun our expansion by building a network of nonprofits within the State of Oregon and will be moving to California in the near future.

The program has a complete six week volunteer training course on all aspects of transitioning offenders. We also offer volunteer incentive programs.

The NRC and TOP began with one envelope and an idea of what the offender needs to improve his or her chances of success. I began this journey 7 years ago, and since have learn to build a successful nonprofit from the foundation up. Yet it takes more than one man to build a strong house, so I found those who had specific skill sets and motivation to help in this development and implementation of TOP. Under my direction our mission, goals and success has and continues to move forward.
