Austin Transitional Center - CoreCivic - Inmate Reentry Preparation

"Community corrections" is a broad term used to describe numerous community-centric forms of correctional services, including residential reentry facilities, drug courts, treatment centers, and many others. At Avalon, our community corrections efforts focus on residential reentry centers, also known as "halfway houses." In Texas, Oklahoma, and Wyoming, our halfway houses and local, community partners provide men and women with the skills, guidance, knowledge, and resources necessary to successfully make the transition from incarceration to free society. We provide housing, food, counseling, training, and many other services to those in our care. Our goal is that they will experience productive, rewarding lives upon their return to society.
Halfway houses are where offenders receive true help reintegrating into society. Halfway houses lower recidivism. The national average for recidivism (the rate of released offenders who re-offend and are re-incarcerated within three years of release) is 50%. After successful completion of the program, that rate drops to 12-18%. Halfway house beds are the most cost-effective beds. Not only do these facilities give offenders the best chance for successful reintegration into society, but they also save millions of dollars in State budgets. Halfway house residents are employed in the community. Those inmates released from higher security facilities do not have jobs, savings or reintegration assistance when released and are much more likely to re-offend. One in 100 adults in the United States is behind bars.

BENEFITS OF COMMUNITY CORRECTIONS HALFWAY HOUSES:
• Reduces recidivism
• Reduces crime
• More cost-effective than building new prisons
• Reduces overcrowding
• Saves taxpayers millions of dollars in recurring incarceration costs
• Increases offenders' abilities to succeed
Our Mission: To break the cycle of crime by providing proven reintegration services.
