job skills for men just released from prison
Soteria at Work is the social enterprise of Soteria Community Development Corporation (CDC), a non-profit in Greenville, SC that uses the tools of Community Development to economically empower men and women out of the generational cycles of poverty and recidivism.
Through woodworking and deconstruction projects, Soteria at Work teaches men how to tear down old homes, reclaim the wood, and create beautiful pieces of furniture. They learn how to take something that would have been discarded and unveil new beauty and purpose.
From taking apart condemned structures to preparing spaces for new construction, our team is skilled in the selective dismantlement of building components, specifically for reclamation.
