Who We Are & What We Do

Another Chance to Win, Inc (ACT Win) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization committed to transforming the lives of formerly incarcerated women and youth in Baltimore, Maryland.

Women returning from prison face significant barriers to reintegration: housing insecurity, unemployment, trauma, family separation and systemic discrimination. Simultaneously, youth affected by parental incarceration often struggle academically and emotionally increasing their risk of repeating the cycle.

Act Win is rooted in a passion for restorative justice, youth advocacy and holistic community healing. We support individuals facing barriers due to incarceration, poverty, or trauma by equipping them with tools and support systems needed to live stable, productive lives. We offer rehabilitative, wraparound programs to help break the cycle, empower women to become self-sufficient and reduce recidivism. Our services include education, vocational training, workforce development, financial planning, rebuild family relationships, reunification, mentorship for women re-entering society and case management.

ACT Win's objectives are to enhance the well-being of all female participants with no discrimination based on nationality or beliefs. The basic outcome is to transform women and youth in a holistic and supportive way.
