According to the Florida Department of Corrections website, preliminary studies utilizing a one-year recidivism measure indicate that participation in transitional programs greatly increases inmate success after release from prison.

We at Passion Flower Productions, Inc. are working on a transition program that involves finding volunteer church teams that would adopt women at the time of their release to support them and find resources for them for the first year of her life in the “free”.  

A needs assessment will be used to determine each woman’s individual needs (for example, housing, education, vocation, medical and dental care as well as emotional support) to facilitate a holistic approach to the transitional process.
