A Note From the CEO
Nik’s House has been welcomed into the Sarasota community. Offering an unprecedented level of support for formerly incarcerated men, it features a strong emphasis on recovery support, financial stability, self-awareness, life skills, community engagement, and employment skills.

During their first two weeks, Anthony and Joe have attended a minimum of one Twelve Step meeting a day, toured both Suncoast Technical College and Jewish Children and Family Services, taken their first financial literacy class, studied the Hero’s Journey and Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, and begun reunifying with their families.

In between, they’ve kept house, worked in the yard, shopped for groceries, worked on their personal binders to track their progress, and had great attitudes every step of the way. I’m tremendously proud of Mike’s leadership and of both Joe and Anthony for their positive approach to a new life.

Thank you for all you’ve done to support this vision and for the opportunities you’ve brought to these wonderful men. We’ll keep you posted on how things are going!

With many thanks,
Barbara
