Resource Center - WIN Recovery
WIN Recovery serves the justice-involved population, so whether an individual has been previously incarcerated or is facing charges that could lead to incarceration, they would be eligible for their program. At the resource center, an individual would be assigned a coordinator who would help them to assess their needs and set some goals to achieve. They would then meet with their coordinator on a weekly or bi-weekly basis to work on achieving those goals. Some things they are able to help with are bus passes, moving expenses, and utilities. They also help clients obtain any documentation they might not have, ranging from Social Security cards, State Identification, Birth Certificates, and even transcripts. The resource center stocks various tangible items that usually aren't found at food pantries, such as baby needs, hygiene products, laundry needs, over-the-counter medications, and more. They are a full wrap-around service, and if there is a service they can't do in the office, they will find what you need and help you get those appointments set.
