StrideMen

Men re-entering the community from prison or addiction treatment are often stigmatized, compounding the many barriers to successful reintegration. Many struggle with unresolved issues of trauma, mental health and addictions as well as a lack of a positive support system. All of these factors can contribute to addiction relapse and/or re-offending.

CJI’s StrideMen program provides the essential practical and social support needed to help men break cycles and build more constructive and productive lives in the community. We support men re-entering the community by providing effective social support that builds confidence and success and prepares the community to receive them.

Program Closure:

CJI’s StrideMen program is no longer active due to funding loss. We thank the partners who supported this program, the funders who believed in this work, and mostly – the men we have met along the way. Should funding be achieved, we look forward to resuming programming.

When you have no one who will listen to you or support you then your addiction will do so.

Having CJI’s support gave me a way out. It allowed me to release my feelings which were vital. Then CJI provided guidance as to what was out there in the community to help me.

Having a friend you can trust was important to me and it helped me to start trusting again.

All inmates are stripped of dignity/trust in jail and when released they have no clue what the world is all about.

Thank you CJI for your support.

During our 40+ year history, we have continuously responded to community needs by creatively, and innovatively applying restorative justice principles to new problems. We believe the only limit to the power of restorative justice is the capacity of the human heart to change and grow.
