FIRST Services

Our FIRST Services team is here to help folks coming home from jail or prison with the basics to get through those first few days. We offer things like bus passes, clothing, backpacks filled with hygiene items, emergency medicine, rental assistance, and referrals to places that help with jobs, food, and legal support.

Right now, services are available by appointment only.

If you or someone you know is returning from incarceration, you—or your Parole Officer—can request help using our online referral form.
