Our 2026 Initiative
The Morgan House
The Morgan House is currently being constructed. It is a women’s step-down facility operated by TPOM, provides a step up to independent living. This safe, supportive, and affordable home offers a sanctuary for women rebuilding their lives after overcoming challenges such as incarceration, addiction, or homelessness.
Designed to address critical needs in the community, the Morgan House bridges the gap between recovery programs and full reintegration into society. By offering stable housing and ongoing support, the facility empowers residents to continue their journey of personal growth and healing.
Through the Morgan House, TPOM equips women with the tools they need to build a new life—one filled with hope, opportunity, and dignity—within a secure and nurturing environment.

Why Help the Incarcerated?
Mass incarceration affects us all. Tennessee Governor Bill Lee expresses appreciation for TPOM and describes the need for programs that assist with reentry.
How We Can Help
Our Services
Transforming Lives Behind Bars
Our Ministry believes in the power of God’s grace and second chances. Through spiritual, mental, and educational programming, we provide hope to thousands of incarcerated men and women across Tennessee, giving them the tools for true transformation.
Trading Recidivism for Restoration
Over 95% of people incarcerated are released. Rebuilding a life after prison is an overwhelming task. We provide returning citizens with the support they need to succeed. This changes their lives, saves millions of tax dollars, and revives broken communities.
Ending Generational Incarceration
The children of the incarcerated are very likely to live in poverty and are more vulnerable to being arrested themselves. Our services help care for the children of those behind bars. This repairs broken families and works to end the cycle of generational incarceration.
incarceration. People are impacted in many ways when they or a loved one goes to jail
or prison. It can result in fear, worry, grief, and overall hardship. If you have been
incarcerated, you might benefit from counseling services. If you are a spouse, partner,
parent, grandparent, or child of an incarcerated person, you may benefit from talking to a
qualified counselor. Please contact Randy Halstead, TPOM Clinical Director at 615-840-
7669 or email at rhalstead@tpom.org. We offer in-person or virtual sessions free of
charge.
