Inside Prison Programs
NVC and Mindfulness Curriculum
Programs in the Community
Program History

Freedom Project Safe Returns Programs address our community’s need for genuine safety through supporting the transition of returnees and educating the community on ways to enhance their successful re-integration.

As participants of our prison workshops are released, we seek to support returnees through the challenging transition of reentering society and founding new lives.

Freedom Project’s Community Circle offers an opportunity to practice NVC and mindfulness in open dialogue for returnees and community members wishing to learn from, understand, and support each other.

Over the longer term, and with increased human and financial resources, we have a commitment to supporting communities most affected by incarceration.  We would enjoy the opportunity to offer more programs to serve families and friends of returnees;  youth at risk of incarceration; survivors of violence, especially violent crime; and direct service providers (for example:  parole officers, youth educators, community advocates for women’s safety).

Invitation to Become Part of a
Community Circle

We are excited by our new Community Circle, designed to support everyone involved in our efforts to create community with those returning from prison, members of the community, survivors of violence and anyone with interest in creating more safety in our community.

The Circle meets on the first and third Mondays of each month from 6:30 to 8:30 in the Freedom Project office at 544 27th Ave (off Cherry). Seattle, WA 98122.
