Forgiveness House assists men being released from incarceration and are re-entering back into the free world. Since
we opened our doors, we have accepted over 225 men into our program, many who are today clear of the Tennessee Department
of Correction supervison with completed sentences and no further evidence of criminal behavior. Forgiveness House provides
clean, affordable housing featuring individual bedrooms, three meals per day, transportation, job placement assistance,
relapse prevention recovery services, and morally based learning programs. All of which help the men transition back
into society as clean living, upright and productive citizens ready for employment and service to their communities.
We
believe that a moral transformation must occur either before men leave prison or in the crucial weeks and months following
release, for solid, successful re-entry to occur. We stress that a spiritual foundation is critical in building of character
free from the emotional scarring of their past.
Forgiveness House
exists today because God has ordained it to exist, and it is by His Hand that Forgiveness House ministers to this forgotten, but rapidly growing segment of our society. You can help by getting involved. Helping us
in some way making a difference
" for the least of these my Brothers".
