New Beginnings is a jail-based program providing workforce and life development services, mentoring, and support to women in the Kent, Ottawa and Muskegon County Jails. The program's purpose is to reduce the likelihood that a woman will return to jail after release. Mentor's play a critical role in helping women successfully reenter the community and avoid re-incarceration. We offer extensive training for New Beginning's mentors, and ask for a one year commitment.
