Presentation at the Never Give Up Transitional Living 2025 Fundraiser Event!

During the Never Give Up (NGU) Transitional Living Program Fundraiser on November 4th, Dr. Jenn Tostlebe and doctoral student Taylor Gonzales presented on their collaborative partnership with NGU Program Director Shane Reilly. Together, they have developed an evaluation framework for the program — an important first step toward a comprehensive process and outcome evaluation. Supported by the Sherwood Foundation, this effort reflects a shared commitment to evidence-based practice, community engagement, and lasting reentry success. Taylor was also awarded GRACA funding to advance the process evaluation, which will form the foundation of her dissertation.
