'I used to love the streets and never considered working. I think the program was a great opportunity for us because as felons we have a very hard time finding jobs and finding people willing to give us a second chance. I learned a lot from this program from the computer skills, to how to conduct myself in an interview, and the lessons we did showed me a lot on what employers are looking for when they are hiring. I only hope the next class gets as much out of this program as I did.' –Stephan, Class of 10/13. 'The Delaware Department of Correction (DOC) works closely with the Project New Start staff to provide this valuable training opportunity for offenders currently under the supervision of the DOC or who are recently returning to the community after incarceration. We look forward to continuing to partner with Project New Start to improve the level of services provided to our offenders, assist them in finding employment and improve the safety of our communities by reducing the likelihood of recidivism.'

Coupe, Former Commissioner. 'The New Start program is not simply about placing ex-offenders in jobs, albeit a critically important piece to reentry.
The New Start program takes a very comprehensive approach, informed by evidence-based practices. They employ cognitive behavioral therapy to address the top driver of recidivism, distorted thinking patterns. They have had remarkable success working with a population that has been traditionally challenging. The success of the New Start program stands in stark contrast to the recidivism outcomes reported by most other reentry programs and probation offices. New Start follows the evidence and does it with fidelity through experienced practitioners. '–John McDonough, Retired, Chief US Probation Officer.
