The Young Offender Re-entry Program - CAB Health & Recovery Services, Inc.

The Young Offender Re-entry Program offers persons (18-24) with a history of substance abuse a chance to rebuild their lives before and after leaving jail.

We link clients to free outpatient, intensive outpatient, or residential drug and alcohol treatment. We can also help with the legal aspects of release—plus referrals and case-management around food, housing, transportation, clothing, healthcare referrals, adult education, GED, or getting a job.

The program works with those serving a sentence in the Essex County House of Corrections or Massachusetts State Prisons. Post-release services are for those living in Essex County, Massachusetts. With probation and parole officers, we help clients (including but not limited to those with mental illness and substance abuse issues) to adjust to their new life.

The program has four distinct phases, including aftercare. This program is made possible through a grant from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
