New Charlotte transitional home supports women returning from prison

A nonprofit from Los Angeles, A New Way of Life Reentry Program, has opened a transitional home in Charlotte's Sugar Creek neighborhood for women returning from incarceration. The home houses up to six women and is part of the organization's 15th location, with a 6% recidivism rate reported among participants. The program provides housing, legal services, and workforce development at less than half the cost of incarceration.
