Ladies Empowerment & Action Program (LEAP)
LEAP is a nonprofit reentry program that provides education, housing, and employment to formerly incarcerated women. One of the most marginalized groups of women is those who have experienced incarceration. With this in mind, they provide transformational education, entrepreneurial training, and mentorship to serve as a model, voice, and advocate for the power of rehabilitation over retribution.
