Reclaiming Power Before You Leave
Incarceration doesn’t just take away time — it interrupts dreams, families, careers, and futures. At Ardella’s House, we created Life Interrupted to help women turn that disruption into a defining moment of growth, healing, and renewal.
Life Interrupted is a 12-week personal development and reentry planning program that happens behind the wall, designed specifically for women preparing to return home from prison or jail.
Rooted in dignity, sisterhood, and accountability, this program helps participants rebuild their lives with intention — one goal, one choice, and one breakthrough at a time

Who Its For:
Women impacted by incarceration who are ready to start a new chapter — while they are still in jail and have been navigating reentry without support.
Why It Matters:
Prison may have interrupted her life — but it doesn't get to define her future. Life Interrupted is where she gets to write a new story, surrounded by a community that sees her worth, honors her struggle, and champions her success.
