DALLSS, Inc. (Diane And Louise Ladies Support Services) is a SOMWBA (M/W/NPO) Certified 501© 3 Non-profit organization founded in 1999 with an innovative approach to helping ladies prevent recidivism to substance abuse, domestic violence, and incarceration via long-term follow-up/aftercare programs and services designed to empower women with tools and strategies that foster proactive and preventive methods to achieve successful re-entry back into society.
DALLSS’ programs and services starts when women are initially incarcerated and provide follow-up after/care programs and services as they transition back into society, and continue until they have successfully reintegrated in their community as proud respected and responsible citizen.
DALLSS’ transition re-entry process includes the delivery of 3 significant evidence-based programs and a variety of services for both pre- and post-release of incarcerated women. These programs help women restructure their lives, and develop skills that will enable them to improve their mental and emotional health to overcome self-destructive behaviors.
Via our Long-Term Follow-up Aftercare Support programs and services, women receive mentoring, crisis intervention support, counceling and self help skills training designed to help them transition from prision or jail and achieve a safe and successful re-entry.
DALLSS’ strategy is to help women integrate back into society with a plan designed to focus on self-help, drug addition, risk reduction and strategies that help women stay focused while they develop safety habits during their stages of self development. They also learn how to intermingle with mentors and educators, and not feel uncomfortable, intimidated, insecure, or inferior.
