The Coming Home Reentry Resource Directory is an effective tool to assist returning citizens, their families and support networks, as well as service providers, community leaders and government officials in establishing stability for people returning to our communities. This Directory is presented by the Crime and Justice Institute (CJI) at CRJ. For more than 130 years, CRJ has been providing direct care and supportive services to society’s most challenged citizens. CRJ’s direct service programs range from residential homes for adults with developmental disabilities to programs serving at-risk youth and men and women returning home from incarceration. In support of CRJ’s mission, CJI provides nonpartisan consulting, policy analysis, and research services to improve public safety throughout the country. With our creative, collaborative approaches to today’s most pressing and complex social and public safety problems, we are committed to improving public safety and human service delivery in Massachusetts and nationwide. At CRJ, we know all too well that the transition from incarceration to the community is a difficult time for returning citizens, and this transition affects their families and the communities to which they return. The needs of the population returning from prison or jail can present significant obstacles to achieving stability. Yet, there are many services and agencies in our communities that provide the assistance that can mean the difference between success and return to prison or jail. This Directory is intended to identify and describe these services and distribute this information to as broad an audience as possible. The Directory is based on the great foundation constructed by the Prisoner Reentry Working Group, the original authors of the Directory. CJI took over production in 2009 and continues to build on the good work that has been done. The Coming Home Directory website can be found at www.cominghomedirectory.org. You can search the Directory in a number of ways, get contact information, and download and/or print the PDF version of the Directory. Due to the costs of producing the printed version, updates will be published in printed form, annually. However, this website will be updated on a rolling basis.

This Directory is a compilation of services available to previously incarcerated citizens returning to or living in communities in Greater Boston. The Directory presents important information for returning citizens, corrections practitioners and policymakers, as well as those with an interest in accessing services for returning citizens, including their families and friends, volunteers and other service providers. This Directory is presented by the Crime and Justice Institute (CJI) at Community Resources for Justice (CRJ). What is the Purpose of the Directory? The purpose of the Directory is to assist returning citizens – as well as their families, service providers and local agencies – improve their chances of success in the community by connecting them to services important for stability and success. The transition from incarceration back into the community is a difficult time, and affects returning citizens as well as their families and communities. The needs of the population returning from prison or jail can present significant obstacles to achieving stability. Yet, there are many services and agencies in our communities that provide the type of assistance that can mean the difference between success and return to incarceration. This Directory is intended to identify and describe these services and distribute this information to as broad an audience as possible. Who is the Directory for? The Directory is primarily intended to benefit the following people and groups: • Returning citizens • Families and friends of returning citizens • Service providers • Corrections practitioners • State and local agencies that provide services to people including returning citizens • Policymakers interested in criminal justice and social service systems • Researchers examining the services available to returning citizens in Massachusetts How Do You Access the Directory?

  • Hidden in Plain Sight: Eyes on Historic East Somerville
    Hidden in Plain Sight: Eyes on Historic East Somerville Meeting Place: In front of the Mt. Vernon Restaurant at 14 Broadway, on the Charlestown- Somerville border. The tour will take approximately two hours. At the end participants are encouraged to continue their exploration of East Somerville and have a bite to eat and drink at one of the many culinary spots in the neighborhood, along Broadway. East Somerville ranks among the oldest neighborhoods in Somerville, tracing its development back before the Town was incorporated independent of Charlestown in 1842. It is also among the City's largest neighborhoods -- bounded by the Sullivan Square section of Charlestown on the east, the Washington Street/B&M rail corridor on the south, the McGrath and O'Brien Highway on the west, and the Mystic River on the north. Its proximity to a major east-west highway--Broadway--as well as the construction of railroad stations at the periphery of the area during the 1830s and 1840s strongly influenced the initial development of this neighborhood. Because East Somerville has historically been a neighborhood for over 160 years, it has a multi-layered built environment that can be explored via a variety of tour routes. This particular tour will showcase the variety of housing options available to families of all income levels, from Greek Revival and Italianate residences of the 1840s and 1850s, to modest mid-nineteenth century cottages, to substantial post Civil War Mansard Style "trophy houses." We'll also view neighborhood 1 houses of worship, and discuss ongoing and proposed renovation projects of public buildings along Broadway.

  • Tucked Away Treasures: East Somerville's Rich History and Architectural Legacy
    Tucked Away Treasures: East Somerville’s Rich History and Architectural Legacy Walking Tour with Ed Gordon, in concert with East Somerville Main Streets – Sunday, June 17, 2019 INTRODUCTION This year’s walking tour is focused primarily on residential buildings located between Broadway and Washington Street on the north and south, along the Somerville/Charlestown border, and Myrtle Street on the east and west. East Somerville, together with Prospect Hill and Spring Hill, were among the first sections of Somerville to experience residential development in a more or less comprehensive manner. Due to the vision and calculated risk-taking of local businessmen, suburban subdivisions made the leap from plans on paper to three dimensional reality in what had been Charlestown’s remote “land beyond the Neck.” This land later separated to become the City of Somerville. A primary goal is to showcase the architecturally, and generally historically, significant private residences that have remained largely intact in this easternmost part of Somerville. The buildings will reflect the variety of architectural styles popular during the Victorian era (1837-1901). The tour will highlight the characteristic features of these different architectural styles and tell the “back stories” of the properties that explain how these styles captured the imaginations of builders and homeowners. The intent is to make historic architectural design more accessible, as well as share the sometimes colorful stories of the buildings’ earliest owners. Broadway is an “ancient” highway that dates back to the 1630s. Originally its path did not extend as it does today up and over Winter Hill, but instead intersected with Main Street, following it to the center of Medford.
