When it comes to reducing recidivism and rehabilitating the incarcerated, we have to acknowledge that incarceration is all too often a family affair. To end generational incarceration, we must address the entire family. If we provide basic education, job training, and work release programs to those incarcerated we can actively begin the road to ending generational incarceration which in turn supports and leads to economic and social development for the country.

The vision of the Eli Global Reform Foundation extends well beyond the walls of the jails where generational incarceration begins. Our ultimate vision is to help these men and women deviate from their current path to a more productive and successful approach to life.

At the basis of our vision of reducing recidivism and rehabilitation is an understanding that if we are able to vigorously work towards our goals, with an increased focus on rebuilding the family and community involvement, we can influence the next generation of leaders to help reduce the recidivism rates of tomorrow. Our vision lies in the idea that every man and woman we support in rising above and beyond these circumstances, will help them to elevate themselves, their families and their communities.
