About Us
Our team come from long backgrounds of prison, addiction homelessness and marginalisation. They understand from personal experience the effects of custody and the barriers faced on release, both practical and emotional.
When people begin to work with On the Out, they see workers who are just like themselves. Their pasts - their knowledge of prison, ways of talking and being - helps enable trust and understanding.
Our approach
We aim to enable people to find or regain positive identities, relationships, and control.
We understand the heavy impact of trauma and institutions on lives and behaviour.
We see community as key to rehabilitation, and so strive to be a resource for local communities, breaking down stigma and prejudice.
