New Leaf – New Life, Inc. was founded in April 2006 to address unmet needs of people caught up in our criminal justice system. Over 90% of those who are incarcerated return to our communi6ty, but 70% of them wind up back in the system within three years. The vast majority of people who go through the criminal justice system are made less able to be contributing members of society.
New Leaf is focused on volunteer-driven programs revolving around the jail. New Leaf coordinates volunteers who serve as “navigators” for inmates and those released from jail to find help and sources of support for successful re-entry into the life and work of the community.
New Leaf - New Life, Inc. is dedicated to the idea that volunteers can transform our criminal justice system. Whether you are a retired business man, teacher, pastor, attorney, artist, or counselor New Leaf has a volunteer opportunity for you!
