Embraced:Fully’s Vision

We envision a world where returning community members are actively supported by Angel Teams to help ensure key needs are met in order to succeed in not going back to prison or jail.

Embraced:Fully’s Mission

Our mission is to organize, train, educate, and enable Angel Teams across the United States to help qualified returning community members successfully reenter society.

Embraced:Fully’s History

Embraced:Fully was founded in 2020 to address the gap that exists between exiting prison and successfully reintegrating with society. Religious institutional work in many cases has traditionally not extended beyond prison walls. Embraced:Fully is the hand-off organization to assist with practical needs and resources for returning community members.
