Impacts

To offer effective interventions, EFry identified the factors which research shows make women more likely to come into conflict with the law, as well as those that help women develop resilience and reduce criminal justice involvement. We then matched those with pathways out of the correlated issues of homelessness, addiction, poverty, trauma and mental illness. Our programs are specifically designed to address those risk factors and support clients in developing resilience to manage the challenges they face in their lives.
