Arizona Advocates for Ex-Offenders

Arizona Advocates for Ex-Offenders Together the number of years the two of them have accumulated on the streets since leaving from behind prison walls almost exceeds 100 years.

AAFEO is a Phoenix based 501c 3 nonprofit agency whose mission is to reduce the recidivism in adults and youth through active engagement
and community embeddedness. In March of 2016 two ex-offenders came together in Laveen, AZ in a living room to discuss forming a Nonprofit Corporation that would assist other ex-offenders in transitioning back into the mainstream of society. Within the next 2 wee

ks they were joined by three additional ex-offenders and two other interested parties; an ASU Master’s Degree Student/Professor and a Mental Health Worker. This group of seven now have a small office in Phoenix and registered as a Nonprofit Corporation. With five ex-offenders, whose years on the street is close to 125 years of freedom, now help ex-offenders, probationers and parolees reintegrate back into society. We are the ones that came… “From Prison Walls to Freedom Halls”

🌊 Make a Splash in Your Community! 🌊

The job market in 2026 is finding its balance, but for many in Phoenix, the search is still a challenge. Did you know that 75% of resumes are rejected by automated systems before a human even sees them? Or that approximately 13.6% of Phoenix residents are still navigating life below the poverty threshold?
