Program accomplishments

  • Garden Time prepares incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals for the workforce, equipping traditionally underserved populations with the skills, self-confidence and support they need to successfully transition to long-term employment and a productive life in the community. Garden Time implements a three-pronged training approach; we provide prison-based educational programs that teach incarcerated men and women to cultivate gardens and grow food, integrating job readiness skills and reentry support. We provide community-based green industry job training for formerly incarcerated Rhode Islanders through the Green Reentry Job Training Program twice annually. In addition, we employ graduates in our "Canopy Crew" to maintain young street trees in low-canopy Providence neighborhoods. Our programs foster education, inspiration, and empowerment, and help trainees translate new skills into opportunities that enable their successful and permanent reentry into society.
