Our House Residential Multi-Service Center; establish as a pilot initiative at CWC in Pike County.

SB 2038 establishes a pilot program called "Our House Residential Multi-Service Center" within Mississippi's Department of Corrections at a facility in Pike County. It provides comprehensive services - including employment assistance, housing support, healthcare, and counseling - to returning citizens under community supervision who meet specific eligibility criteria (e.g., unemployed but willing to work, homeless or in at-risk housing, no violent/sex crime convictions). Participants must contribute 25-50% of program costs and complete five structured phases focused on stabilization, skill-building, workforce development, and community reintegration over 2-3 months. The bill requires annual reports on outcomes and biennial independent evaluations to measure recidivism reduction and cost savings.
