God allows us to hurt to heal others because you cannot heal what you cannot feel. So, don’t let the pain of your past punish your present and paralyze your progress and purpose.

Many returning citizens who exit the correctional system face challenges, including a lack of education and employment skills, antisocial attitudes and values, mental health and substance abuse issues, medical problems, lack of housing, and family concerns. Community Action of Anne Arundel County has a history of helping address these issues and assisting citizens in becoming productive members of society.
The Community Action Agency utilizes a recognized certification and Career Pathway Program, focusing on in-demand occupation sectors for men and women involved in the adult justice system.
