SOCIAL SUPPORT SERVICES

At Exonerated Nation, we understand that the journey home is complex. Our Social Support Team provides compassionate, culturally competent, and trauma-informed services tailored to the unique needs of exonerees upon immediate release. We recognize that wrongful incarceration has lasting impacts on mental health, financial stability, and personal relationships. Our goal is to offer holistic, person-centered support to help exonerees rebuild their lives with dignity, autonomy, and security.

While we provide a wide range of support services, we do not offer legal representation, legal assistance, or medical or legal advice.

Our team is here to support you every step of the way. Fill out our intake form below to tell us more about your needs and how we can help.
