Columbia

Meet us here. Saint Louis University Transformative Workforce Academy is in partnership with in2Action.

In the Columbia region in Missouri, TWA collaborates with in2Action. In2Action provides transition and recovery support services to people recently released from prison and those at risk of incarceration. By focusing on relationships, in2Action provides safe housing, basic needs, case management and counseling to introduce people to an entire community of healthy people. Their Reentry Opportunity Center (ROC Center), where TWA collocates, is a place where people who are justice-involved come to access support and resources to reenter society and thrive.

At in2Action, TWA works primarily with individuals who began services pre-release (at FCC, MECC, NECC, or WERDCC) to connect them with employment in Columbia and the surrounding areas. TWA coordinates with in2Action to refer to wraparound services offered at the agency and beyond. The program also cultivates fair chance employer partnerships to be shared by participants from both organizations.
