Inspire Together proposes a project to ensure safe and successful reentry for youth transitioning from Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall to South Los Angeles. Inspire Together has a memorandum of understanding with the Los Angeles County Probation Department to provide pre-release services for youth in the Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall. The organization intends to provide case management and links to supportive services for 200 youth over the 3-year project. The project will focus on youth facing homelessness upon release, youth with history in foster care, and youth who are gang involved. Case management will be individualized and services may include mental health counseling, placement into stable housing within a month of release, and substance use treatment.
