About Stichting Surant
Stichting Surant: Empowering Ex-Convicts to Reintegrate into Society
Stichting Surant is a non-profit organization that aims to help ex-convicts reintegrate into society. We believe that everyone deserves a second chance, and we are committed to providing the necessary support and resources for individuals who have been incarcerated to rebuild their lives.
Our mission is simple: we want to reduce recidivism rates by empowering ex-convicts with the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to successfully transition back into society. We understand that the process of reintegration can be challenging, which is why we offer a range of services designed to address the unique needs of each individual.
Our Approach
At Stichting Surant, we take a holistic approach towards reintegration. We recognize that successful reintegration requires more than just finding employment or housing; it involves addressing underlying issues such as addiction, mental health problems, and lack of education or job skills.
To achieve our goals, we work closely with our clients from the moment they are released from prison until they have successfully reintegrated into society. Our team consists of experienced professionals who are passionate about helping others succeed.
Services Offered
We offer a wide range of services designed to meet the diverse needs of our clients. These include:
1) Job Training and Placement: We provide job training programs tailored specifically for ex-convicts. Our goal is not only to help them find employment but also equip them with essential job skills such as resume writing and interview techniques.
2) Housing Assistance: Finding affordable housing can be challenging for ex-convicts due to their criminal record. At Stichting Surant, we work with landlords who are willing to give our clients a second chance by providing affordable housing options.
3) Counseling Services: Many ex-convicts struggle with mental health issues such as depression or anxiety due in part because they feel isolated from society after being released from prison. Our counseling services provide emotional support during this difficult time in their lives.
4) Education Programs: Lack of education can be one reason why some people turn towards crime in the first place; therefore at Stichting Surant offers educational programs like GED preparation courses so that individuals can improve their chances at finding better jobs once released from prison.
Impact on Society
The impact Stichting Surant has had on society cannot be overstated; since its inception in 2010 over 500 people have benefited directly through its various programs aimed at reducing recidivism rates among former prisoners while also improving public safety overall by reducing crime rates within communities where these individuals reside after release back into mainstream life outside prisons walls.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Stichting Surant is an organization dedicated towards helping those who have been incarcerated get back on track by offering various services aimed at reducing recidivism rates among former prisoners while also improving public safety overall within communities where these individuals reside after release back into mainstream life outside prisons walls.
