Advocate

The Compassionate Advocate

As a formerly incarcerated person, I understand the pain of being incarcerated and feel that you don’t have any support during your incarceration.

​

However, that does not alleviate the fact that they need assistance. As a compassionate advocate, I try to assist those incarcerated by being their voice and reaching out for assistance in their individual needs. Most of the services are for legal cases. Attorney fees are expensive, and the average person can’t afford them, especially those incarcerated with limited or no financial family support.  The services we provide but not limited to:

 

​

  •  Communicating on behalf of prisoners calling probation officers, attorneies, prosecuting attorney, and etc..

  • Letter Writing Service

  •  Attorney referral (state and federal)

  •  Motion drafting, filing, and rerrals (fee applied)

  •  Letter writing and phone calls (fee applied)

  • Federal Prison Consultants (limited fee applied)

  • State Prison Consultanst (limited fee applied)

The Compassionate Advocate offers:  
1) Legal Aid Assistance (limited legal research for their cases, and contacting lawyers in their behalf), Advocacy (letters of recommendations to commute sentences, early termination of probation, and record expungement)  
2) Liaison between the offender and their victim(s) to help establish repentance and forgiveness  
3) Liaison between the offender and the Department of Children and Families for them to help create an affordable payment plan for any existing child support debt

(4) Help the offender find a transition or halfway house six months prior to their release

(5) Provide Goodwill Voucher for clothes

6) Job referral

Re-entry Service

Our re-entry process helps prisoners return to society with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed. We help returning citizens find jobs, housing, and education opportunities, and reconnect with family and friends to develop a plan to move forward in healthy ways with the support of a faith-based community. We then continue our relationship with returning citizens to provide ongoing support.

 

Volunteers from the local church meet them when they return to their destination and stay connected in the weeks to come, fulfilling practical needs like housing, groceries, counseling, life skills training, and more.

​
