Opportunity

In 2021, Post purchased, renovated, and continues to maintain a 22-room boarding house for youth and a 36-bed residence for adults in Los Angeles. Working in partnership with Anti-Recidivism Coalition (ARC) and the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, this transitional housing program is designed to improve reentry outcomes for formerly incarcerated individuals.

Impact

In addition to providing safe and stable housing, these programs offer comprehensive wraparound services — on-site case management, mental health and educational support, workforce development and life skills, and more — in a supportive and empowering environment designed to help them rebuild their lives.
