Enterprise’s Housing as a Pathway to Justice (H2J) initiative explores the intersection of housing and the criminal legal system. The initiative strives to understand the core barriers that exist, identify opportunities to improve equity for justice involved individuals, and keep up with new ways of thinking about and approaching the gaps that exist for these individuals. We take a look at trauma informed care as a lens that can be used to better support the needs of justice involved individuals as they navigate the housing system.
In 2017, construction began on a 16.1-mile rail line – known as the Purple Line – with the goal of conveniently connecting riders in two adjacent Maryland counties. The rail line linking Prince George’s and Montgomery counties is scheduled to complete in 2027. In 2019, JPMorgan Chase made a $5 million philanthropic investment in the Purple Line Collaborative, a subset of organizations actively participating in the Purple Line Corridor Coalition (PLCC). This funding wasn’t to support light rail construction, but to support the small businesses close to the construction and stabilize residents living nearby.
