Tomorrow is a special election in California. Some people incarcerated in LA County jails still have the right to vote — and that vote is powerful. A New Way of Life Reentry Project stands for dignity, access, and civic engagement. We aren't telling you how to vote. We’re reminding you that your voice matters. Voting is freedom. Let’s make it count. #ANewWayOfLife #ANWOL #SpecialElection2025 #SusanBurtonLA #Reentry #SystemImpactedVoices

About us
A New Way of Life Reentry Project (ANWOL) is a nationally acclaimed, Black-led organization poised to transform the US approach to criminal justice. We envision a world where everyone is valued, and systems of oppression are eliminated. Our mission is to empower communities with opportunity where justice impacted women heal, excel, and lead while disrupting systems of oppression and harm. We believe: • In building community, motivating, and centering all women. • Every person has inherent value and holds the power of possibility and transformation within them. • Public resources are better invested in opportunities for transformation than on prisons and punishment. • Formerly incarcerated people must be at the forefront in creating solutions to the incarceration crisis.

This Movember, A New Way of Life Reentry Project honors the strength, vulnerability, and healing journeys of men in our communities — especially those impacted by incarceration, systemic injustice, and generational trauma. We believe in uplifting voices too often silenced, and we build spaces where everyone can grow, reconnect, and thrive. #Movember #HealingJustice #ReentryWithLove #ANWOL #CommunityCare #JusticeBelongsHere

Lucy’s Auto Center started as just a small auto body shop, which has grown into a full auto service center today. Throughout their journey, they have never forgotten their community. To A New Way of Life, they are family. We honor them for their compassion and dedication to their neighbors, and to those in need. Thank you for always providing amazing service for our residents and our community. To this day, 100% of their donations go to supporting women’s causes. Thank you for changing lives for the better. There is so much to celebrate about their story. Join us in honoring them at our 2025 Annual Gala #RadicalReentry, on December 7th. Purchase your tickets Here: https://lnkd.in/gkPDURz9

Meet April! April became a resident at #ANewWayofLife after 20 years of incarceration. Now, she has the opportunity to re-experience life – going for walks, cooking her own meals, slowly reconnecting with family, getting a driver’s license, enjoying ice cream. The one thing she looks forward to the most is baking for the holidays. Welcome home April! #ANWOL stands behind you every step of the way. #FreedomWork #Reentry #SusanBurton
