Reducing recidivism through Education, Employment, and Emotional Well-Being.
GOSO has established itself as one of the most effective reentry programs in the New York City area for 16 to 24 year-old, legal-system involved individuals. Fewer than 9% of GOSO participants return to jail, as compared to a national average of 54% for their age group. For more than 16 years, we’ve proven that early intervention within the justice system, along with supportive counseling, educational support, vocational training, and workforce development reduces recidivism and helps our participants become contributing members of their communities.

“As the Manager of Reentry Services at GOSO, my role is both deeply personal and profoundly impactful. I work directly with incarcerated youth on Rikers Island, ages 16 to 24, who have been directly impacted by the criminal justice system.”
GOSO is proud to announce the appointment of three new board members who will strengthen our efforts in violence prevention, education, workforce development, and mental health services.
The work we’ve accomplished this year has been nothing short of life-changing for the young individuals we serve, and you’ve been a crucial part of making it happen. Thanks to your generosity, we’ve helped countless people break down barriers and build paths to brighter futures.
