We provide Transitional Housing for men and women completing reputable 28-35 day Substance Abuse programs. 98% of our residents come to us homeless and jobless,80% are veterens. They do bring a desire to make a positive change in their lives. Newleaf Christian Transitional housing assists its residents in meeting life on life's terms without the use of drugs or alcohol. We strongly feel the men that transition from our house back to society will continue be good role models and shinning examples of how a man can turn his life around.

President Barack Obama eliminates disparity in sentencing for crack and cocaine....

The President worked in a bipartisan way to eliminate disparities between mandatory sentences for trafficking crack cocaine versus powder cocaine, which he believes has disproportionately filled our prison with young black and Latino drug users. "They will also repeal the mandatory minimum sentence for first-time offenders convicted of simple possession of crack, as crack is the only drug that a non-violent first-time offender can receive a mandatory minimum sentence for possessing."
