The SoulFisher Ministries

The mission of The SoulFisher Ministries is to respond to the needs of youth with incarcerated parents and to promote restorative justice for those currently or formerly incarcerated.

The vision of The SoulFisher Ministries (TSM) is to embrace the world in a network of charity as defined in the Word of God. We desire to see young people educated and empowered to succeed in life and broken lives and homes re-established through education, job training and employment, computer literacy, and transitional housing. Our ultimate goal is to re-empower formerly incarcerated women to be productive influences in their family and community and to help break the cycle of the school-to-prison pipeline.

TSM consists of two major programs: Adult General Academic Program of Education (AGAPE) and Educate Now to Achieve Later (ENAL).

Through the AGAPE Reentry Program, TSM is working to help reduce the rate of recidivism by removing barriers to successful reentry and creating more workforce development opportunities for justice-involved people. The AGAPE Reentry program provides pre and post-release courses, second chance career services, supportive housing, and wrap-around services.

The ENAL Afterschool Program embodies our goal to help break the school-to-prison pipeline by empowering youth academically, socially, and emotionally for successful careers. The program provides tutoring and enrichment to students in the Riverview Gardens School District who have a currently or formerly incarcerated parent, or who are performing 2-3 grades below expectation.
