Miles of Freedom

Miles of Freedom Miles of Freedom assists individuals, families and communities to rebuild lives after incarceration. We realize that we can not do this by ourselves.

Miles of Freedom is a Dallas nonprofit that seeks to deal with the entire structure of re-entry when it comes to the previously incarcerated individual coming home. Our mission is to equip, empower, and employ individuals returning home from prison and provide support and assistance for families and communities impacted by incarceration. We need a community that is excited and interested in giving

back and one that can be reached by those in need. We offer job prep skills, financial training, legal assistance, medical assistance, clothing, and more. In any area of re-entry from incarceration, MOF is eager to assist or refer.

Have you heard of the Richard Miles Act?

In 1994, Richard Miles was convicted of a murder he did not commit after police had reports from a witness naming another suspect but none of it was turned over.

Texas passed the Richard Miles Act in 2021 that requires police to disclose all evidence at filing, sign a statement confirming nothing was withheld, and hand over new evidence immediately.

His name is on a law protecting everyone who moves through the Texas criminal justice system, and MILES of Freedom is changing what happens when they come home.

Meet our newest Case Manager, Carmen Olivas!

Back in 2018, Carmen walked through our doors as an intern and was one of the first students to help us build the electronic case management system we still use today. Now she's back on staff, and we couldn't be more glad to have her.

Carmen holds a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Texas at Arlington School of Social Work and is currently pursuing her Master of Social Work. She has experience in community reintegration and has supported mothers in accessing education and building independence.

As an Oak Cliff native, she takes pride in working in the same communities where she grew up, bringing her empathy-rooted approach to every client she serves.

What if your next job was the reason someone's reentry story had a different ending?

We're hiring a Lawn Service Supervisor to lead our Lawn Care Service and Land Maintenance team — part of our pivotal Transition-to-Employment program that gives those impacted by the justice system immediate income, hands-on training, and structure.

Last year, 83 clients secured employment through M*F's workforce programs. You'd be part of building that number.

Through United Way of Metropolitan Dallas Data Capacity Building Initiative, MILES of Freedom strengthened how we measure impact across our support services.

As part of the initiative and first cohort, we used neighborhood-level data to better understand the needs of the communities we serve. That data helps us tell a clearer story about our work and where support is needed most.

Thank you to UWMD for supporting data-driven community impact. View the impact report here: https://bit.ly/4tScUkN

Take a look inside The Legacy Experience exhibit at the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis.

We were honored to be present just before the grand opening on May 16th to experience the newly expanded space and see MILES of Freedom’s work represented within the Pillars of Justice gallery on nonviolence.

These photos offer a glimpse into the exhibit, the MILES of Freedom feature, and the surrounding storytelling that connects reentry to a broader conversation about dignity, justice, and incarceration.

Seeing our work reflected in a space dedicated to the issues at the heart of the Civil Rights Movement is proof we all have a role to play in creating change.

Bridging the gap from prison to promise.

This month, we launched our new Pre-Release Program inside the TDCJ - Sanders Estes Unit in Venus, Texas with an inaugural cohort of 30 men preparing to return home within the next six months.

We are grateful to see this program come to life after thoughtful planning and partnership. It is designed to begin reentry support before release to give participants the tools, guidance, and foundation they need for the realities they may face when they return home.

Through workforce readiness, case planning, and reentry preparation, participants have more time to identify barriers, ask questions, build trust, and create a plan for life after incarceration.

This is an integral part of MILES of Freedom’s model of change in action.
