    Company Overview

    Community Solutions Inc.

    (CSI) is a nonprofit organization that promotes the responsible citizenship, accountability, and well-being of individuals and families involved, or at risk of involvement, in the criminal justice system.

    Since CSI's founding in 1962, it has been a pioneer in the community-based service.

    We have been delivering supervision, treatment, and comprehensive individualized services to help clients interact more effectively in their communities and become productive citizens.

    Using this plan we built the first ever halfway house in New England which has now been replicated and grown to almost 50 programs in 9 states.

    CSI understands clients and staff have been impacted by trauma.

    CSI is becoming a trauma-informed organization by hiring individuals with existing experience in trauma-informed practices as well as supporting ongoing staff development with trauma-informed practices.

    This will include learning to recognize symptoms of trauma and how to respond, through training starting at orientation and throughout their career at CSI.

    CSI is committed to systematically evaluating the integration of the trauma-informed values of safety, trustworthiness, choice, collaboration, and empowerment at all levels of the organization's policies, procedures, and structures to guard against the possibility of re-traumatization.
