Last week, ONH Board Members Karen Holt, Coley Jones, and Ashley Pratt, along with ONH President/CEO Reggie Fullwood, attended the Mobile Reentry Unit Ribbon Cutting Event in St. Johns County. Guest speakers included Erica Averion (pictured in red), Executive Director of the Florida Foundation for Correctional Excellence. Attendees had the opportunity to tour the mobile unit and learn how this resource will deliver essential reentry services directly to individuals, helping them overcome barriers to successful reintegration. The unit will serve the Daytona Circuit, including Volusia, Flagler, St. Johns, and Putnam Counties. It’s inspiring to see initiatives like this making it easier for individuals to access the support they need—building safer, more successful communities. #OperationNewHope #FloridaReentry #reentry #communityimpact #event
