This holiday season, we’re reflecting on the people who embody the heart of Riverside House, and today, we honor one of them: our President and CEO, Cleveland Bell III. 💙

Mr. Bell once stood where many of our residents stand today, searching for a second chance and a new beginning. Instead of letting his past define him, he chose a life of purpose… and for more than 47 years, he has poured that purpose into others.

Because of his leadership, thousands of men and women have found shelter, dignity, hope, and a reason to believe again.

As we celebrate a season centered on renewal, grace, and new life, we’re grateful for a leader who reminds us what redemption looks like in action. ✨

Thank you, Mr. Bell, for choosing every day to serve, to lead, and to believe that no story is ever too far gone. 🙏

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. 💙

Celebrate Recovery is for everyone, providing a grace-filled community where individuals courageously confront their pain and the negative perceptions they may have about themselves, God, and others. This biblically based approach fosters long-lasting recovery by healing your hurts, guiding you towards new, healthy truths, and helping you develop life-giving habits. 🌟

Behind these walls, something powerful is happening. 💙

Riverside House is a place where lives are steadied, hearts are healed, and purpose is rediscovered. Every room, every hallway, every quiet corner holds stories of transformation, growth, and hope in motion.

Here, people don’t just find shelter.
They find guidance.
They find dignity.
They find the courage to begin again.

We’re grateful for a space that allows restoration to unfold every single day. 🙏

Because of your generosity, prayers, and heart for second chances, Give Miami Day 2025 was a beautiful reminder of what God can do when a community comes together in faith.

Every donation, every dollar, every share, every prayer, became a seed of hope for the men and women we serve.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for believing in this mission and standing with Riverside House. The impact of yesterday will carry into countless tomorrows.

May God bless you abundantly for your generosity. 💙

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.
