Second Chance: Our non-profit (501c3) community outreach, skill development, and transitional housing center specifically designed to help young adults assimilate back into the community after being incarcerated. We serve high-crime, high-poverty communities, striving to enhance both adult and young adult reentry strategies through collaboration with the field, as well as identify and respond to emerging or chronic re-entry challenges. Approximately 9 million people are released from jail each year. Only half of incarcerated adults have a high school degree or equivalent. Employment rates and earning histories of people in prison and jail are often low before incarceration as a result of limited education, low job skill levels, and the prevalence of physical and mental health problems; incarceration only exacerbates these challenges. Second Chance provides transitional housing and supportive services for individuals, families and single parents transitioning from prison, homelessness and unemployment to productive and meaningful lives.

According to the most recent report by the National Autistic Society survey of over 450 children and adults with autism, an astonishing 70% of adults with autism are unable to live independently. Of these individuals, 49% live with family, creating a huge financial burden on aging parents, and 32% live in residential care facilities (offers little or no privacy, autonomy or stimulation). According to the same study, 70% of Autistic adults are unable to live independently. Only 3% of adults with autism live fully independently. In terms of employment, only 6% of adults hold paid, full-time jobs. Regarding mental health, over half of adults with autism have been diagnosed with depression some time in their adult life while 11% say they have suffered a “nervous breakdown.” 94% of Autistic adults are unable to hold paid, full-time jobs. Even though the majority of adults surveyed had participated in at least two autism interventions in childhood, 65% continue having difficulty making friends. Of teens surveyed, 74% stated they had difficulty making friends. Of children under 13 years old, 31% participated in no social activities at all. 65% of Autistic adults have difficulty making friends.
