NewLife-Second Chance Outreach, Inc. is a non-profit organization based in Columbus, GA, dedicated to ending mass incarceration and supporting socially, economically, and civically disadvantaged individuals impacted by arrest, conviction, or incarceration. They provide a range of services, resources, advocacy, and grassroots organizing to replace oppressive carceral systems with person and community-centered solutions, promoting freedom, inclusiveness, equity, and economic sustainability.
The organization envisions a future where individuals affected by arrest, conviction, or incarceration are not burdened by lifelong stigmas, discrimination, surveillance, or community supervision. Instead, they strive for a society that offers safety, self-autonomy, civil liberties, economic equity, and access to resources necessary for individuals to become healthy, thriving, self-sufficient, and self-sustaining members of their communities. NewLife-Second Chance Outreach, Inc. also emphasizes the importance of recognizing and amplifying the voices, experiences, and leadership of women and girls in a male-dominated space within the criminal justice system.
