Realizing a need for reentry services in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, Bishop T.D. Jakes founded the Texas Offenders Reentry Initiative (T.O.R.I.) program in 2005. Since inception, T.O.R.I. has provided service to over 23,000 returning citizens in the areas of employment, education, healthcare, housing, spiritual guidance and family reunification. Involvement in the T.O.R.I. program ensures increased opportunity, housing security, expanded educational opportunities, financial literacy and creates a heightened quality of life for each participant willing to complete the program. T.O.R.I. clients proudly state “I am more.”
