About Transition House Dinsmore
Based in Jacksonville, this 150-bed residential reentry facility is part of The Transition House recovery network and serves adult men transitioning from incarceration, homelessness, or substance use. The approach blends reentry planning with substance use treatment, mental health services, and job-readiness preparation. Residents take part in full-time work in the community, fulfill required responsibilities such as court-related and family payments, and receive guidance built on dignity, consistency, and personal accountability.
The program uses a structured daily routine informed by evidence-based methods. Care includes therapy, trauma-informed support, medication management, and life coaching. Educational resources cover programs that help residents complete a high school education, earn trade certifications, and continue adult learning. Career services focus on job readiness and include the Men’s Warehouse Re-entry Project, offering professional clothing to strengthen confidence. Peer support and recovery activities, including Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), Narcotics Anonymous (NA), and mentoring, support emotional healing and help residents develop the tools and connections needed for sustainable recovery and independence.
As a full-service campus, the center offers 24/7 supervision, nutritious meals, case management, and financial education. Veterans can also access extra housing and employment support through the VA’s Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) program, designed to help low-income veteran households maintain housing stability. Through discharge planning, residents move toward permanent housing and continued growth. Inspire Counseling provides outpatient services for graduates, helping support wellness that continues after residential treatment.
