Project COPE provides selected ex-offenders with community re-entry support by partnering them for one year with faith-based teams of volunteers. Through close personal relationships, these partnerships offer assistance in basic needs, job search, housing, health-care, counseling, substance abuse treatment and prevention, and financial counseling. Transitional housing is available for ex-offenders with no other housing plan.) Men and women in Missouri Department of Corrections facilities are eligible to apply and will be selected on merit without regard to type of crime or without regard to age, color, creed, disability, gender, national origin, race, religion, sexual orientation or veteran status. (Ex-offenders who are released and in the community are not eligible, as partnerships begin while an inmate is in the final months of incarceration.) "
