THE UMOJI TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAM
UMOJI GREEN SPA RETREAT LIVING
From 24-Hour Care to Self-Actualization: UMOJI’s Transitional Housing for Personal Transformation
At UMOJI, we believe that true transformation is a journey—one that honors every individual’s potential, resilience, and capacity for growth. Our transitional housing program is more than a place to stay; it’s a pathway from 24-hour care and support to empowered independence, designed to help each person rise into their best self.
A Foundation of Care, Compassion, and Ethics
Every journey begins with a solid foundation. For those stepping out of incarceration or crisis, UMOJI provides a safe, nurturing environment where 24-hour care is not just available, but woven into the very fabric of our community. Here, care isn’t just about meeting immediate needs—it’s about restoring dignity, trust, and hope.
Our ethical approach centers on respect, confidentiality, and compassion. Residents are welcomed as whole people, with unique stories and dreams. Our team—mentors, coaches, and peers—walks alongside each individual, offering guidance, encouragement, and practical support every step of the way.
A Program Designed for Growth: Up to Two Years of Transformation
UMOJI’s transitional housing is intentionally structured to support personal growth over time, with programs lasting up to two years. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all model; it’s a personalized experience that adapts to each resident’s journey.
Throughout their stay, residents participate in life skills workshops, wellness routines, and community-building activities. Mindfulness practices, reflective journaling, and one-on-one coaching empower individuals to explore their strengths, set meaningful goals, and overcome barriers. The focus is on building self-mindfulness, self-autonomy, and the confidence to make healthy, independent choices.
From Surviving to Thriving: Self-Actualization and Ascension
Our ultimate goal is to help every resident move beyond survival mode and into a life of thriving. At UMOJI, we draw inspiration from Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, guiding each person toward self-actualization—the realization of their fullest potential.
Residents are encouraged to pursue education, apprenticeships, creative expression, and entrepreneurial ventures. As they gain skills and confidence, they ascend to new levels of self-reliance and purpose. Our supportive community celebrates every milestone, big or small, knowing that each step forward is a victory for the individual and for all of us.
Standards of Excellence: Becoming Your Best Self
Excellence at UMOJI isn’t about perfection—it’s about progress, integrity, and courage. We challenge each other to dream bigger, act with compassion, and strive for personal greatness. Our transitional housing isn’t just a program; it’s a movement to help every person discover and embody their best self.
