At Chrysalis, we believe in second chances—and in the people that make the most of them. That’s why we’ve launched the Own the Next Chapter pledge, a heartfelt call to action for anyone who believes in the power of change, redemption, and fresh starts. 

This isn’t your standard petition. This is a promise. A promise to stand with someone who’s doing their best to turn the page—to rebuild their life with courage, resilience, and a job. 

Every Signature Tells Someone: You Matter 

For many of our clients, just getting to our doors takes grit. Maybe they’ve faced homelessness, have a history of incarceration, or long gaps in their work history—and still, they show up ready to do the work. They show up for themselves, their families, and their futures. 

And when you sign the pledge, you say that… 

No one should be locked out of their future. 
Everyone deserves the chance to turn the page. 
Every person who walks through our doors should have the opportunity to own their next chapter. 
And that you will continue to stand for that belief—by supporting second chances, creating opportunities, and helping others take their next step forward. 

But You Do More Than Spark a New Beginning 

Through a generous anonymous donor, every signature this July will unlock a $5 donation to Chrysalis programs—up to $12,500. That means your name isn’t just symbolic. It has the power to provide someone with job readiness training, resume and application support, as well as clothing and personal care items that make any first impression memorable! 

This is What Community Looks Like 

“Signing the pledge is a small act that says something big: I believe people can grow. I believe in progress. I believe in fresh starts,” says Mark Loranger, President & CEO. “Together, we’re helping people own the next chapter of their lives—and that changes everything.”
