Affordable Housing - St.Francis helped to accomplish

The March graduation of four individuals completing the Michigan Prisoner Re-entry Initiative MPRI illustrates a program that works. Instead of a bus ticket and $75, persons in the program receive a cell phone and placement in housing with support services five days a week for 90 days with follow-up at reduced levels. RAAH's capital campaign helped to raise $50,000 for the program.

 

St.Francis of Asissi was a part of this effort in 2008-2009, through supporting the Religious Action for Affordable Housing Capital Campaign of 2008-2009. These individuals are now working with their support systems in the Washtenaw County Community.

 

Thank You, St. Francis.
