REAP currently assists those returning to society post-incarceration with housing, food, jobs, healthcare, transportation, friends/mentors and vocational training. The organization’s mission is to make sure individuals returning from a period of incarceration have access to basic resources in order to make a successful transition.
With its expansion into serving Pensacola’s unhoused population, REAP saw a need to add additional leadership to its Board of Directors as well as to make certain that its Board fairly represents the makeup of the community it serves. Gearing up for its 10th anniversary, the organization recently opened a 17,000-square-foot shelter called Max-Well Respite Center. The facility is divided into three parts: a veteran’s section, a family section and a single’s section, along with a common area and private showers.
