Together We Can

A Transitional Living Center With Purpose

WOHAD is devoted to eliminating homelessness for justice-involved

women by providing transitional housing and programs that build character

to facilitate a successful reentry transition.

WOHAD envisions a country that responds with empathy to challenges

faced by justice-involved women and the barriers that prevent their

successful return to society.

Data collected by Texas Criminal Justice Coalition reveals:

- Texas ranks first in women's incarceration

- 12,508 women incarcerated in Texas's state corrections system

- 64% of women in Texas' state corrections are incarcerated for a nonviolent offense, mostly drug possession or delivery

- 81% of women in Texas' state corrections system are mothers

- 26% of women incarcerated in Texas' state corrections system are Black, comprising 6% of Texas' overall population

These stats don't lie.
