PRIDE takes pride in reducing recidivism during National Reentry Week
Tallahassee, FL - April 27, 2016 We believe in training and rehabilitating inmates. This approach prevents individuals from falling into the "revolving door" of crime, and provides opportunity for them to come out on the other side as contributing members of society. This method has proven to be effective, as almost 90 percent of PRIDE's transition program participants do not return to prison within two years, and an impressive 77 percent of Transition Program participants are placed in full-time jobs.
A History of PRIDE
For over 30 years PRIDE has been making a positive difference in Florida.
