We change lives!
Hawkes Home helps formerly incarcerated men transition into society. We do this with heart—that's what makes us unique and why we are so successful in breaking the cycle of recidivism rampant in the U.S. today.
Since opening our doors in January 2013, we've helped hundreds of men become productive members of society—with a 99% success rate. That's because we give our clients the tools they need to be successful—basic living skills that most of us take for granted, but they lack, like using a computer, searching for a job, and managing money—in a family setting. We are the home most never had.
Here they find and give support. They learn what it means to be responsible and accountable. So when they leave us, they do so as healthy and productive members of society. This, in turn, makes for healthier and happier families, and for safer communities.
Problem:
Cycle of Recidivism
Prison/Jail
Release
On own
Return to familiar
Arrest
Without support, men released from prison/jail have no means to change from what they have done in the past so keep repeating the same mistakes.
Solution:
Path to Productivity
Release
Prison/Jail
Productivity
• Life skills
• Reponsibility
• Accountability
• Workforce development
• More
For men serious about changing their lives, Hawkes Home provides the tools and support they need to become productive, healthy and self-sufficient members of society.
We Opened a Second Home!
Introducing Murphy Home
We are thrilled to announce that we opened a second home in March! It was heartbreaking to turn men away because we did not have room for them. So, with the generous support of our community, we purchased a second house.
It is located very near Hawkes Home and we are calling it Murphy Home in honor of Monsignor Jeremiah Murphy who helped launch Hawkes Home and was an integral part of its development.
Now our proven dual-part restorative justice program (we provide clients with a real home and we help them find work) is available to twice as many men—especially important with the rise in early releases in prisons/jails.
We would love to show you around our new facility. And if you have not been to Hawkes Home, we can cross the street and show you around there, too. Just give us a call to arrange a tour.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to making Murphy Home a reality. Harley Noel who founded Hawkes Home is not here in person to see what he worked so hard to accomplish, but we know that he and Monsignors Hawkes and Murphy are beaming.
Most of all, the men whose lives you help change for the better
and their families thank you because incarceration affects many more than the person incarcerated. Parents, siblings, spouses, and children all feel it and deeply appreciate the return of their loved one.
