The Other Side Academy is providing an innovative solution to help one of our most vulnerable populations experiencing chronic homelessness — those who have been incarcerated and are exiting the prison system .
The Other Side Academy provides a two-year residential program and a six-month transitional program offering vocational training , education , peer counseling , mentoring , leadership training and transitional services .
Over 400 Utahns will have permanent supportive housing through The Other Side Village in a therapeutic and sustainable community . In addition to housing , residents will have important wrap-around services that will help build accountability , sobriety , self-reliance and community contribution .
The Larry H . & Gail Miller Family Foundation has committed $ 1 million toward The Other Side Village . We see this as an exciting solution that can be replicated in Utah , the United States and the world .
