Sitting in the warm light streaming through the windows of her new residence Tuesday afternoon in Ketchikan, Jennifer reflected on her path from addiction, incarceration, assault and hopelessness to a new life full of possibilities. “This place is an absolute blessing for me,” said Jennifer, whose last name is being withheld in order to gain her perspective. Jennifer was accepted into Ketchikan s first-ever Reentry Housing project, a collaborative project between the Alaska Mental Health Trust, the Ketchikan Reentry Coalition, Ketchikan Indian Community and Ketchikan Wellness Coalition that s taken much effort and funding to realize. She is one of five residents of the spacious, clean home, working to rebuild a life after a period of incarceration and/or substance abuse treatment. She moved in on Feb. 24 after graduating from a four-month recovery program at the Ketchikan Addictions Recovery House.
