$100K for Second Chances

At Dismas House, The Dismas Way means creating pathways to hope, healing, and transformation for justice-impacted individuals. Through our 100K for Second Chances campaign, we aim to expand our programs, deepen our impact, and strengthen our community partnerships, ensuring more individuals in South Bend have access to the resources and support they need to rebuild their lives.
With your support, this funding will allow us to:
- Expand Our Programs: Serve more justice-impacted individuals by offering education, employment readiness, and mental health resources tailored to their needs.
- Streamline Access: Simplify application processes to ensure that those who need us most can find support without unnecessary barriers.
- Educate Our Community: Launch initiatives to foster greater understanding and compassion around issues of justice, reintegration, and second chances.
- Remove Barriers: Address systemic obstacles such as housing, transportation, and reentry challenges, empowering residents to thrive.
- Explore Growth Opportunities: Assess and pursue expansion within our South Bend neighborhood to extend our reach and impact even further.
Together, we can make transformation possible—one life, one second chance, at a time. Join us in building brighter futures, The Dismas Way.
