New Song Ministries is a faith-based, not for profit 501c3 corporation that has been serving the community since 1992, helping persons make a successful transition upon returning from our jails and prisons. New Song actively serves needful people who are ex-offenders--along with their families--to meet the challenges of re-entering the community and to foster personal growth and development in strengthening the family and community. New Song works directly with returning persons and their families to provide and coordinate transitional support and services for basic needs, such as food, clothing and housing; employment; transportation; and positive life-building experiences.

Since 2004 New Song has continued to help facilitate the integration of the more than twenty state and local support agencies and service organizations that are now organizing as Kenosha Re-entry Services. New Song has historically worked with many of these groups and continues to play a key role in the community-wide re-entry program.

Goal
To help persons who have been incarcerated make a successful adjustment to family and community life to develop productive lives, improve public safety and reduce the potential for re-incarceration.

Mission Statement
To provide "faith-based" community supportive services for men and women coming out of our jails and prisons and their families to reduce recidivism and break the cycle of incarceration.

Vision
To facilitate individual, family and community transitions in a manner that contributes to the quality of family life, improved public safety and decreased recidivism, New Song will 1) provide basic personal and family needs such as food, clothing and housing; gainful employment and a church surrounding, 2) help promote family structure and values and personal and family contributions to the community; and 3) seek out and engage other community support services as needed.

We believe Psalm 40, verses 1-3 explain...

	1 I waited patiently for the LORD;
		he turned to me and heard my cry.
	2 He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
		out of the mud and mire;
		he set my feet on a rock
		and gave me a firm place to stand.
	3 He put a new song in my mouth,
		a hymn of praise to our God...
