New Vision Organization, Inc.
Who We Are
New Vision Organization, Inc networks and works with other advocates nationwide, although now serving only Massachusetts currently incarcerated individuals serving life/LWOP in Massachusetts for any offense. NVO makes every effort to assist incarcerated individuals who are having their human/ civil rights violated and lacking the rehabilitative treatment First-time Offenders serving Life/LWOP, as well as others deserve. NVO also makes every effort to bring public awareness of prison and prisoner conditions through education and advocacy and to bring awareness that prisoners should never be stereotyped as every situation is different and there is always a second or third side to every story. GOD forgave us. We must forgive others. Our philosophical belief is that individuals heal when their treatment is responsive to their needs and outside support is made available to them. We also encourage family members to also help in some way.
What We Do
Prisoner Outreach Workers are assigned incarcerated client/s and each
prisoner’s need may vary.
Some may need assistance with contacting the courts or some other
state agency. Some may need help with proof reading documents. Others may need
assistance with reentry services, if fortunate enough to be released. Help needed may include helping individuals regain their driver’s license, housing, food, jobs, etc.
Some may provide you with information to submit to artificial
intelligence programs such as the CHAT GPT Algorithm to act as a legal scholar
and provide legal arguments for the incarcerated.
The general purpose of each volunteer outreach worker will be to
advocate outside the prison, for our incarcerated clients who cannot advocate
for themselves while behind the walls.
We work diligently to help our clients in hopes
of positive outcomes. We provide clients with resources they and/or their loved
ones may want to contact for assistance, and/or virtual meetings they may wish
to attend with other advocates, family members of the incarcerated and political
leaders/Law Makers, around Prison Reform Issues.
Volunteers also do research for supportive aftercare resources, such as
transitional Housing and Employment for Clients who are eventually paroled. NVO does research to obtain resources for free
educational & religious correspondence courses for individuals while
incarcerated.
Advocates conduct themselves in a
professional manner maintain boundaries. If interested in volunteering with New Vision Organization, Inc.
