CORE DC is Bringing a Men’s Residential Facility to DC

After years with DC being without a Residential Facility for Returning Citizens, the doors to a new facility will open soon. There has been heated political battles, and those who say that they care for returning citizens (but don’t want them nearby) had to be convinced that this is good for the community. In DC when someone is sent away they are sent to a federal prison that could be anywhere in the country. This means that men and women from DC can be sent to far way communities, cut off from their neighborhoods and support systems, and separated from their families. Having a new facility in DC is a definite asset.
