Helping Returning Citizens Build Stable, Independent Lives
Moving Toward Stability focuses on long-term growth and sustained independence for returning citizens. Building on the foundation of initial reentry support, this phase provides ongoing case management, peer mentorship, and access to critical resources for housing, employment, education, and treatment. Clients receive continued guidance through support groups and workshops on financial literacy, legal empowerment, and life skills that promote lasting stability and self-sufficiency.
In response to lasting public health and social challenges, particularly disproportionate on communities of color, VSC also launched an Urgent Wellness Initiative—a community wellness effort to address health disparities and expand access to care in the District, Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area. Through flexible mobile outreach, trained staff conduct health screenings, wellness checks, connect clients to behavioral health and medical treatment, and provide essential resources that strengthen both individual recovery and community resilience.

Why This Matters
Achieving lasting stability takes more than a successful reentry—it takes sustained support and community connection. VSC’s continuum of care approach ensures that individuals aren’t left behind once they leave incarceration, offering ongoing guidance through community support, health, housing, and treatment programs. This long-term investment helps returning citizens heal, rebuild trust, and create pathways toward self-sufficiency and purpose.
