The Blessing Way - Spiritual Support And Guidance For Reentry And Recovery
Our History
The Blessing Way was formed in 2004 under the direction of Rev. Dr. Joyce Penfield, a Chaplain at the Rhode Island Department of Correction, as an ecumenical effort to offer a spiritually-oriented response to the high rate of return to prison and death by overdose among formerly incarcerated men and women.
We are a fast-paced and fast growing agency which has developed steady social service programming that deals with the whole person. Between Jan. 05 and Jan. 09, our funds increased from $6,000 to $143,000 in 4 short years.
Eligibility: A demonstrated commitment to emotional and spiritual growth and a drug-free, crime-free life style. Call 401-709-3697 for an Intake Interview.
