Who we are…

Over the past few years, Interaction Transition has made many changes. After over 30 years of providing residential housing support to those transitioning back into the community, I/T no longer has residential services and is focusing on an Employment Assistance Program. Our Employment Assistance Program started years ago at our transition house, and fulfills the vital need of getting formerly incarcerated individuals quickly employed post-release. Employment is significantly related to successful re-entry. We encourage you to explore our web site to find out how you can get involved with our re-entry programs, whether you are returning to the community or wish to provide jobs and other services to those in need.

Our Impact

The expected outcome of the program is that participants will remain productive members of the community instead of returning to prison. This expected outcome is based on I/T’s premise that two conditions must be met if formerly incarcerated individuals are to avoid returning to crime:

1. They must be able to meet their basic needs for economic subsistence and social support.

2. They must take personal responsibility for living within the moral constraints of society as a condition for continuing participation in the community. Such responsibility requires insight into their own patterns of thought and social behavior.

The objectives of I/T’s program are advanced by its philosophical approach as well as by its specific services. By emphasizing “self-help” rather than imposing a custodial treatment regime on unwilling participants, I/T aims to encourage its members to develop a sense of responsibility and self-respect.

Thousand people Impacted

We believe that formerly incarcerated individuals with a job, a place to live, and essential life skills are more likely to be successful than those who find themselves neglected and stigmatized when they return home.
