About Dismas Charities
Dismas Charities in Hattiesburg provides residential re-entry programming for adult men and women returning to the community after state or federal incarceration.
The Hattiesburg facility integrates addiction recovery support with education, employment training and mental health services, including outpatient care, dual diagnosis support and cognitive behavioral therapy.
Guided by a mission of "restoring lives, restoring families, restoring communities," Dismas helps residents rebuild stability and reconnect with purpose during a pivotal life transition.
Re-Entry Focused Recovery and Support
The Hattiesburg location operates as a community confinement and residential re-entry center, which I found focuses on blending structured supervision with recovery-oriented programming.
Services include drug and alcohol intervention, aftercare and access to Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous and Cocaine Anonymous meetings.
Treatment includes practices such as CBT and rational behavior therapy paired with validated risk and needs assessments to guide individualized care.
Education, Employment, and Family Stability
Beyond recovery services, I found that Dismas centers its model on three pillars which involve education, employment and family support.
Residents can access GED preparation, trade and college courses, job-skills training, money management, anger management, parenting and marriage enhancement and family counseling to build lasting reintegration.
The facility accepts Medicaid, Medicare, self-pay and financial aid options for eligible residents.
