Testimonials from our re-entry community

At T.O.N.E. U.P., we don’t just track impact — we listen to it. These testimonials come from real people who’ve worked with us, joined our programs, or supported our mission. Their words reflect the heart of what re-entry success looks like.

“They got me into housing, helped me get a state ID, and made me feel like I belonged again. That’s not just a service—that’s family.”

“T.O.N.E. U.P. helped me get my CDL license and turn my life around. Now I’m working full-time and mentoring others.”

“Without T.O.N.E. U.P., I wouldn’t have been able to get to work. They repaired my car and reminded me that my story wasn’t over.”
