Partakers Auburndale, MA
Founded in 1997 Partakers works to help reduce recidivism by providing community mentoring for incarcerated women and men pursuing their degrees and educational opportunities. Through our College Behind Bars Mentoring Program, the powerful mentoring relationships that Partakers builds profoundly impact our students' lives, their mentors, their families, and their communities.
Students who have graduated from the Partakers College Behind Bars Program show a 2% recidivism rate. Past studies show a 6 year national average of 79%* *Bureau of Justice Statistics
In 2021 Partakers launched our new Re-entry mentoring program, the Partakers' Empowerment Program (PEP) in partnership with Brandeis University's Educational Justice Initiative, to guide, mentor, and train returning citizens to help them successfully navigate their return and launch their new chapters.
We invite you to hear from the "Voices of Partakers" as our students, graduates, and mentors tell our stories of success best. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQo74tjYTso
We believe in the power and the promise of lives transformed -we see it every day. Join Us In Our Work Transforming Lives and Building Futures.
