Overview
At T.H.U.G.G.I.N. For Christ Ministries, we are standing at the crossroads of faith and justice. We served young men ages 18–24 who are navigating the rough transition from incarceration, addiction, and homelessness into new lives full of purpose. With a track record of transformation rooted in mentorship, structure, and the Word of God, we’re now ready to expand.
We’re launching a $3 million capital campaign to establish a full-scale Justice Center — a 24/7 facility offering holistic, trauma-informed reentry services for up to 16 young men at a time.
We are not just building a building — we are building a model. A space that reflects what justice can look like when it’s rooted in healing, accountability, discipleship, and community care.

Why It Matters
The system is broken — but we are building something different. Most young men exiting incarceration are released into instability. No job. No support. No direction. That’s where cycles repeat and generational harm deepens.
But when young men enter our program, they find:
This campaign is not about charity — it’s about justice.

- Brotherhood over isolation
- Accountability over apathy
