Reducing recidivism through Education, Employment, and Emotional Well-Being.
GOSO has established itself as one of the most effective reentry programs in the New York City area for 16 to 24 year-old, legal-system involved individuals. Fewer than 9% of GOSO participants return to jail, as compared to a national average of 54% for their age group. For more than 20 years, we’ve proven that early intervention within the justice system, along with supportive counseling, educational support, vocational training, and workforce development reduces recidivism and helps our participants become contributing members of their communities.

SAVE Reduces Violence By Building Community in East Harlem.
SAVE’s work is guided by the principles of Cure Violence, a strategy that leverages the experiences of members of the community to do outreach, including people who have been directly affected by gun violence and “violence interrupters,” young people who have formerly engaged in high-risk activities who act as credible messengers of an anti-violence message in order to prevent and reduce youth violence.
