Stories About Us

“[BAFC] enabled me to find much needed resources and, significantly, a full-time job as a software developer. It is incredibly hard to find work as an entry-level software developer, particularly if you have a criminal background, and I am so grateful for this opportunity.”

Linda Woo

“Directly transitioning into BAFC after 17 years of incarceration was an absolute blessing. This supportive community exhibited kindness, assistance, and empowerment in a way that never felt oppressive or controlling. They equipped me with all the necessary tools to effectively navigate society and allowed me the grace to do so at my own pace. I was able to develop some very meaningful relationships within the house, knowing there was always someone available to support me if I was in need. BAFC is not just a program, but a transformative community that respects individual growth and encourages self-determination.”

“Being in the reentry house provided me with a safe, stable and peaceful place to stay where I can focus on getting my life back on track. It is inspiring to see the positive impact [BAFC has] in the lives of people coming home."

“Shortly after my release from Prison I was diagnosed with bladder cancer. Since I have been at the reentry house, I have received nothing but care and support from everyone involved with my story. The reentry house is the best resource for me undergoing my type of treatment.”
