America’s prison system faces significant challenges:
in 10
people will return to prison after release
years old
the average life expectancy of a correctional officer
billion
annual cost of US corrections
Social Purpose Corrections eliminates the profit motive and puts expert reformers in charge of prisons. We reinvest every penny into rehabilitating our residents, empowering our staff, and breaking the cycle of mass incarceration.
We are the country’s first and only secure nonprofit full-service corrections organization
Our model is a new concept in managing secure correctional and re-entry facilities. All net revenues from federal and state contracts will be reinvested in resident safety, programming, education, healthcare and staff development—no profit, shareholders, or red tape.
