The New Freedom Program in Washington State is a unique and powerful initiative that provides critical support and resources to individuals who have been impacted by gang involvement and incarceration. As the only peer-based gang intervention and life skills development program in the state's Department of Corrections, New Freedom has been a game-changer for many individuals seeking to turn their lives around.
Founded by six incarcerated men who are former gang members, along with a classification counselor and a correctional lieutenant at the Twin Rivers Unit of Monroe Correctional Complex, New Freedom is dedicated to removing barriers to success and building a foundation for positive change. Through a focus on learning new behavioral skills, specialized reentry planning, and connection to comprehensive wrap-around services, participants in the program have the opportunity to build a network of support and accountability within the community.
