****The Second Chance Program/Re-entry into the Community after rehabilitation***
Counseling and Referral Services: 2000+
Deskan Institute & Training Inc has been able to help individuals complete over 580 community service hours. A partnership was formed with DeKalb Community Service Board and the Local court system.
The Second Chance Outreach Program strives to educate, rehabilitate, and increase community safety by maximizing men’s and women’s potential. Our services, along with community collaboration and contributions, allow our outreach efforts to assist individuals in need of a Second Chance.
We understand that people deserve a second chance. Their families, spouses, children, and communities also deserve a second chance.
A second chance represents an opportunity to successfully decrease recidivism thus saving lives, one person, family, and community at a time.
We aim to reintegrate people into society and the job market.
We must effectively reunite families, productively restore our communities, and provide effective skills to all, as we move forward.
Deskan’s Second Chance program made a difference for more than ten individuals who benefited from this program this year.
****OUR Clothing Closet/Re-entry into the Work Force and Safe Housing****
Our clothing closets enable those in need to acquire new or gently used clothing for themselves or their loved ones.
We aim to assist individuals and families who lack access to appropriate clothing by providing coats, shoes, and garments for all ages, including infants and babies.
