Following years of conversations, dreaming and diligent planning, Project RETURN for the first time in our 45-year history will directly provide housing to men exiting incarceration.

Housing is a pre-eminent need for people returning from incarceration. 42% of the 2,500 men and women who return to Milwaukee County from prison annually have a need for stable housing. For myriad reasons, there are not enough homes available, leading to increased homelessness and recidivism.
In March, the first men will move into the 12 refurbished independent-living apartments Project RETURN will manage at our new headquarters, in Downtown Milwaukee's redeveloped Historic Tenth Street Residences, 1004 N. 10th St.
This is a major step forward not only for our nonprofit, but for the whole community of Milwaukee. Here at Project RETURN, we believe Strong Reentry Equals Public Safety. That starts with ensuring individuals returning home have a safe place to live, and have a platform upon which they build a successful future.
