Unlocking Doors Inc

TRACE DATABASE, & DATA REPORTING: Unlocking Doors collects, analyzes and reports its high value sets of evidence-based client data to stakeholders to illustrate and note predictive trends in the criminal justice arena. Although a broad spectrum of data is reported, Unlocking Doors gives primary focus to four key services without which an individual is most assuredly set to re- offend - Housing, Employment, Transportation, and Medical/Mental Health. This allows funders and policy makers to better determine areas of cost savings across the board and allows for smart and effective funding, policy, and legislative decisions when it comes to improving public safety. To Unlocking Doors, success is witnessed when a client: i. Finds sustainable employment, housing, medical/mental health treatment and transportation. ii. Makes all court-ordered and Unlocking Doors'-generated appointments; and iii. Does not have further entanglement with the law. Unlocking Doors receives funding from their board of directors, employees, volunteers, individual donors, corporations, civic groups, foundations, community events and grants from the State of Texas.

EDUCATION & COMMUNITY COLLABORATION: Believing that "local knowledge" is the most valuable tool when it comes to solving issues impacting society, Unlocking Doors' unique model relies heavily on community engagement (individuals, organizations, businesses) in effectively mapping a reentry system that will ensure reintegration success for former offenders wishing to make a fresh start with no future entanglement with the law. To that end, Unlocking Doors' scalable model educates, trains, and collaborates with all "local" stakeholders (government, corrections, law enforcement, service providers, the public, etc.) to empower the community, as a whole, in the delivery of reentry services to those former offenders reentering their specific community. Known as the "Unlocking Doors Community Network", this group, comprised of "brokered" partnerships with 300+ (and counting) community stakeholders, works directly with Unlocking Doors to provide clients the "expert local field" services and resources required to lead them to a future of success.
