Abstract

The Exodus Institute is an offender re-entry organization located in the Delta Region of the State of Mississippi. We worked to achieve two objectives in the development of this project - to start a nonprofit organization and to develop the first program model. We engaged in many activities in the development of this project, always involving the community in the process. The activities included filing the appropriate documents to start a nonprofit organization, completing the 501(c)3 application, and identifying initial board members and volunteers. We also identified the program development needs of ex-offenders in the target community and developed the first re-entry program. (Author abstract)
