Coming out of incarceration is a vulnerable time, and often individuals are left without the support they need to reintegrate into their communities effectively. Ruth Utnage, our Reentry Resources Coordinator, works directly with individuals coming out of incarceration to set goals, build strategies for success, and provide them with the items they need for their homes. It’s impossible to take care of yourself without the appropriate hygiene products, good sleep, or the right technology. Civil Survival wants to ensure that our clients are ready to rejoin their communities and thrive.
By donating to Civil Survival, you are directly supporting individuals post-incarceration as they seek stability and safety upon reentry.
Below is the list of most requested items and accompanying links to purchase if you are interested in bulk donations. Please reach out to our Development Manager Marisa Kent-Guerra or Ruth Utnage to discuss purchasing alternative bulk items. However, you are welcome to purchase and donate different versions of the items listed below in smaller quantities if you would like.
We will distribute the items to clients, or you can sign up for a kit repack volunteer experience and pack hygiene kits for clients.
