Ascent Community Healing Program

Ascent is an end to end community healing program, established in 2018, where the mission is to support individuals as they return from the justice system to their communities. To that end, Ascent is a commitment to accompaniment with a ‘By Any Means Necessary’ approach to providing care, support, and empathy. We are made stronger and more effective because we prioritize on building a team of Community Health Workers that have, themselves, journeyed from the justice system to the field of community healing; It is their intimate approaches, leadership qualities, evolving capacities, and lived experience that provide space and direction to the returning justice system impacted individual.

Through Ascent’s Community-Based Intensive Case Management Services Team, justice-system impacted individuals will find linkages to culturally appropriate and humble resources. We will do everything we can to connect a justice system impacted individual with the community resources and support they need.
