Jenna’s Promise, a non-profit recovery organization based in Johnson, has received a justice reinvestment grant of nearly $241,000 from Vermont Department of Corrections to expand reentry services and community supports for formerly incarcerated women recovering from addiction.

“We are deeply grateful that the Department of Corrections and everyone who made this possible for entrusting us with the resources to further enhance our recovery village model, a paradigm-shifting approach that addresses substance use but also mental health, physical health, trauma and other barriers and basic needs to facilitate better long-term outcomes,” Daniel Franklin, co-executive director of Jenna’s Promise, said.
