Nehemiah Project Inc

Residential care for teenage boys in out-of-home placement has been part of the Nehemiah Project for more than half a century. The Milwaukee nonprofit serves youth through a residential community and adapts its programs to support shorter stays and family connection. Services promote young people's physical and emotional well-being through psychological, educational, leadership, and transitional living support. A Support and Wellness Initiative is among its programs. The organization works with male youth offenders, offering a safe living community and support as they move toward young adulthood. Its approach emphasizes learning, personal development, and the possibility of family reunification while addressing challenges that can include trauma, mental health needs, and disruption at home.
