Description
Since 1974, Dismas House of Nashville has been providing transitional housing and support services to men coming out of prisons and jails. If it were not for the housing and services we provide, most Dismas House residents would be homeless – due to a lack of personal resources and/or family support. Housing, then, is the first step to recovery for Dismas residents, and it is the foundation from which all of our subsequent programming is built. For this reason, Dismas is more than a house. “Dismas,” as we say, “is family.”
