Re-entry Center of Ocala
Reentry Center of Ocala is a community based program dedicated to supporting individuals before and after their release from correctional facilities. Their mission is to improve public safety by helping justice involved men coming out of the Florida Department of Corrections break free from the vicious cycle of chemical dependence, crime and incarceration. Their no fee employment services assist those with criminal convictions to reenter the workforce, including job training and placement services. Reentry Center of Ocala offers prisoner work release facilities and transitional services for the Florida Department of Corrections. Originally founded under the umbrella of Time for Freedom Inc., Reentry Center of Ocala currently serves 132 men, most of whom are gainfully employed within the community. In addition to direct services, the organization partners with numerous community organizations and local employers to ensure that all individuals have access to the care and support they require for a successful reentry.
