They’re coming home from prison with hope and a plan. Will you help them succeed?

September 18–19, 2026 • Boulder, Colorado + Live Online

Right now, more than 1,300 people on our waiting list are preparing for life after prison and asking to be matched with a faith community. Be part of changing a life.

Join us in Boulder, CO for two days of inspiration and learning—and get started on the path to be matched with an inmate waiting to hear from you.

Three ways to help someone come home:

• Letter Writer — offer words of hope and kindness to someone living where little comfort exists.
• In-Person Support — offer compassion, friendship, purpose, and belonging after release.
• Community Reentry Partner — connect returning neighbors with the resources, relationships, and belonging they need.

You won’t do this alone. Embraced:Fully provides structured onboarding, expert-led training, careful screening and matching, and ongoing support.

No congregation or prior reentry experience is required. Faith communities of every tradition, returning citizens and families, seasoned reentry professionals, and individual neighbors are welcome.

Pay what you can. No one is turned away.
