About US

Taming My M.E.S.S. Foundation exists to reduce barriers and improve outcomes for justice-impacted women and at-risk girls by providing evidence-informed mentorship, reentry support, workforce development, educational opportunities, and community-based resources that promote self-sufficiency, stability, and personal growth. 

Taming My M.E.S.S. Foundation, Inc. specializes in preparing justice-impacted women for life beyond incarceration through structured cognitive and reentry readiness programming, mentorship, and individualized preparation.

Our work connects personal development inside correctional institutions with community-based resource navigation and support after release. Through Rebuilding Me™ and Project M.E.S.S., we help women strengthen decision-making, identify goals, and navigate pathways toward stability and independence.

We believe a person’s past does not define their future. Our work is grounded in dignity, accountability, personal growth, and the belief that every woman deserves an opportunity to build a different future.

We envision a future where every woman and girl, regardless of her past circumstances, has access to the support, opportunities, and resources needed to achieve stability, self-sufficiency, and long-term success. Through mentorship, advocacy, and collaboration, we strive to strengthen families, build stronger communities, break cycles of incarceration and poverty, and create lasting change for future generations.
