At Riverside House, every act of service, big or small, becomes part of something greater. đź’™

Our volunteers are the hands and feet of compassion, helping in ways that touch both heart and spirit. From sharing faith and offering encouragement to supporting clerical work and helping during special events, their presence reminds our residents that they are seen, valued, and loved.

Whether it’s a word of prayer, a smile on Mother’s Day, or a helping hand during Thanksgiving, each moment of service becomes a seed of hope that God uses to change lives. 🙏

We’re thrilled to share that one of our Riverside House residents was selected for the LEAP Fellowship Program at NBCU Telemundo Enterprises, a powerful initiative designed to create career pathways and support reintegration for formerly incarcerated individuals.

Our team visited Telemundo’s headquarters for a facility tour and witnessed firsthand the heart behind this fellowship. Their commitment to diversity, equity, and second chances is deeply human.

We’re grateful for partners like Telemundo who believe in unlocking potential, offering opportunity, and helping our residents rediscover purpose through meaningful work.

Because when a door opens, hope walks in. 🙏✨

There are moments when hope feels distant, but that’s exactly where grace begins its work. 🙏

Riverside House was built on a vision of “rehabilitation with dignity,” and Mr. Bell has been its living example. He once sat where our residents sit today. Now, for almost five decades, Mr. Bell has been the steady voice reminding them: God isn’t done with your story.

His life reminds us that no past is too broken for God to redeem, and no story is too far gone to be rewritten with hope. 🙏💙

The three years after release are critical for rebuilding lives and staying on the right path. That’s why our Alumni Support Group is here to walk alongside individuals during this pivotal time. 💙

Through our non-residential, in-house program, we stay connected with alumni for three years after release, offering regular check-ins and tailored support to help them overcome challenges and avoid relapse.

Every step matters, and we’re committed to being there every step of the way!

At Riverside House, we walk with men and women as they rebuild their lives, rediscover their worth, and restore what was once lost. It’s a journey filled with courage, faith, and the quiet strength to begin again. 💙

What we see every day is proof that grace is real, change is possible, and hope can be rebuilt, one person, one family, one future at a time.

The work continues, because every life matters. ✨

At Riverside House, volunteers bring hope to those who feel forgotten, friendship to those who feel alone, and dignity to those learning to rebuild.

From pastors to students, from business owners to graduates, our volunteers are proof that when a community shows up with compassion, lives change. Every prayer, every word of encouragement, every moment spent reminds our residents that they are valued and capable of a new beginning.

No time is too little. No act of kindness is too small. Every volunteer becomes part of a story of restoration and faith. đź’™

“If you have nothing else to hold on to, hold on to your faith.” 💙

In this heartfelt testimony, Ke’Onna shares advice for those still behind bars: take your time, don’t rush to fit in, learn yourself, and hold tight to your relationship with God.

Her words remind us that even in the hardest seasons, there is beauty to be found, like the simple gift of seeing the sun and clouds each day.

At Riverside House, our Spiritual Development Program offers more than guidance; it offers refuge. Rooted in biblical principles yet open to all, this non-denominational ministry is a place where the broken find hope, the lost find purpose, and the weary find strength.

Our vision is simple but powerful: to serve with integrity, compassion, and love. We walk alongside those who are unsaved, unchurched, homeless, or incarcerated, equipping them with faith and encouragement to overcome their past and step into a brighter future.

✨ Because healing doesn’t just happen on the outside, it begins within.

Our Mission & Vision

Mission: Riverside House exists to guide men and women convicted of crime into becoming productive citizens through a non-denominational, faith-based approach.

Vision: That all individuals, whether imprisoned in mind or spirit, will lead positive and productive lives when given the opportunity to succeed. Riverside House seeks to change the lives of at-risk individuals (regardless of gender or culture) through community and residential programs that emphasize personal accountability, family relationships, and spiritual growth.

We envision a future where the formerly incarcerated are good citizens and neighbors – productive, educated, with strong family and spiritual values, playing an equal role in contributing to a safe and vibrant community.
