New Beginnings for anyone with a juvenile or criminal record
Founded in 1979, Project Return, Inc. (PRI) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the rehabilitation of Middle Tennessee’s prison population for the good of the community as a whole. Nearly three decades of experience have resulted in a holistic case management approach designed to provide services that ensure quality, cost-effective assistance and support for former offenders and their families. Through employment placement, direct aid and other support services, PRI offers ex-offenders new beginnings. Since its inception, the agency has tried to help probationers and parolees become self-sustaining, law-abiding members of the community. The agency provides training and assistance designed to increase employability, improve life skills and coping skills, all in the hope of reducing the likelihood of recidivism. Services are free to anyone with a juvenile or criminal record who has been incarcerated or is currently incarcerated and planning for his or her release.
