<p>The Doe Fund (TDF) works to empower newly released formerly incarcerated individuals to become – and stay – productive, law-abiding citizens and parents. Through its acclaimed work-based program, Ready, Willing &amp; Able, TDF provides new parolees with paid work and training; safe, secure, drug-free housing; job counseling and placement services; individualized case management; sobriety through mandatory drug testing and intensive relapse prevention; and lifetime graduate support. For those new parolees who already have approved housing, the innovative non-residential Ready, Willing &amp; Able–Day (RWA-Day) program provides services to parolees while they reside in supervised housing in the community.</p>

<p>Individuals interested in RWA or RWA-Day can request a referral from their supervising parole or probation officers. In addition, The Doe Fund conducts information sessions and pre-release interviews for inmates at the Queensboro State Correctional Facility.</p>
