Case Management and Reentry Support Services
At The Freedom Institute (TFI), we believe in the power of transformation and the inherent worth of every individual. Our case management philosophy is rooted in hope, redemption, and the potential for positive change.
​
We understand that everyone has a story, and at TFI, we focus on writing the next chapter, not reliving the previous ones. Our approach is founded on the core beliefs that your future is not defined by your past, that lived experience is a valuable teacher, that redemption is possible for everyone, and that personal transformation can spark community change.
​
With these principles guiding us, our case management philosophy focuses on our clients' potential, not their past.
​
-
Future-Oriented: Envisioning and working towards a positive future rather than dwelling on past mistakes.
-
Strength-Based: Building upon each person's unique strengths and lived experiences.
-
Empowerment-Focused: Equipping clients with tools and confidence to overcome challenges and achieve their goals.
-
Redemptive: Believing in second chances and the power of personal transformation.
-
Community-Minded: Encouraging clients to become positive forces in their communities, turning their own growth into inspiration for others.
We see our participants not as their past mistakes but as future community leaders, mentors, and change-makers. Our goal is to empower you to turn your experiences into wisdom, your challenges into strengths, and your aspirations into reality.
Our Approach
Our experienced Care Managers, many of whom have walked similar paths, work one-on-one with participants to:
​
-
Conduct a comprehensive assessment to understand each client's unique needs, goals, and barriers.
-
Collaboratively develop an individualized case plan that outlines clear, achievable steps toward their desired future.
-
Provide hands-on guidance and coaching to help clients navigate challenges, build skills, and access community resources.
-
Foster a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients feel empowered to take risks, celebrate small wins, and stay motivated.
-
Regularly review progress, adjust the plan as needed, and celebrate milestones along the way.
-
Connect clients with mentors, support groups, and opportunities to give back to the community.
We see our role as that of a guide and partner, walking alongside our clients as they reclaim their lives and become agents of positive change.
We're committed to helping our clients not only rebuild their lives but also cultivate a renewed sense of purpose, belonging, and community impact.

The Impact of Reentry Support
Research shows that comprehensive reentry programs like ours can significantly reduce recidivism:
• Overall recidivism rates can be reduced by up to 20% (National Institute of Justice, 2018)
• Employment-focused programs can decrease re-offending by 20-30% (Visher et al., Journal of Experimental Criminology, 2017)
• Educational programs can lower the likelihood of return to prison by 43% (Davis et al., RAND Corporation, 2013)
• Housing support can reduce re-arrest rates by up to 25% (National Reentry Resource Center, 2018)
At TFI, we believe these statistics represent more than numbers – they represent lives transformed, families reunited, and communities strengthened.
