New Leaf Marketplace is a justice enterprise division of the Survivor Advocacy Outreach Program that aims to prevent sexual/relational violence and substance misuse by providing economic support, housing, and supportive services in Southeastern Ohio.
At New Leaf, we understand that experiencing trauma and substance misuse uproots survivors from their community and support networks. New Leaf works to reestablish these connections so our clients and their children can thrive and finally break the reinforcing cycle of trauma, substance misuse, and incarceration. The program consists of three major components: Free housing for two years that gives residents autonomy; supportive services that provide counseling, transportation, childcare, legal advocacy, and case management; and living wage employment that includes workforce development training so that residents graduate into meaningful and sustainable careers. During their time in the New Leaf program, many participants will work at New Leaf Marketplace - the living wage, supported employment site on the Historic Public Square in Nelsonville, Ohio - to hone their soft and customer service skills while selling locally made coffee, baked goods, and art.
