Boaz and Ruth

Boaz & Ruth’s mission is to rebuild lives and communities through relationships, transitional jobs, and economic revitalization. Three key strategies pursue that mission: • We rebuild lives of formerly incarcerated men and women through a transitional jobs and training program • We empower the physically blighted commercial corridor of Highland Park by restoring buildings, incubating and operating businesses, and providing jobs. • We connect Highland Park and our program participants to the wider Richmond community through activities that bridge racial, economic, and geographic barriers. All three strategies, intertwined, create a strong rope of rescue for struggling individuals and their troubled community.
