One thing is abundantly clear when you visit with the staff at Comcor: this place is different! Dedicated staff members consistently focus on helping their clients. Stories abound of their extra efforts, from finding resources to securing housing, or fixing a car for clients.

The nonprofit has been a resource in helping the community corrections system provide critical services for the justice involved with housing, community safety, rehabilitation and other treatment services for 38 years. During that time, the organization has developed a deep understanding of the community and the needs of its clients. Through its work with the justice involved, the homeless and those suffering from addiction, Comcor has seen — first-hand — the challenges that many people face.

Comcor is committed to expanding its services to help even more people in need. “One of our strategic goals is to do more for our citizens who seem to fall through the cracks of existing services, and we are ready for the challenge,” said Mark Wester, executive director. With the future development of services, Comcor will be able to provide innovation, resources and help to those who need it most. With a history of dedicated service and commitment to clients, the excitement for this new era is palpable among the staff and clients.

This new era includes a rebranding and new name: Embrave. This new name will support the exploration and expansion of new services and better reflect their commitment to the community. Embrave will embolden clients and the community by providing effective programs and support so clients experience transformation into the world bravely. Embrave will continue to provide high-quality services to justice involved people in the community and the judicial, law enforcement and civic organizations with which they partner. Their service development will allow them to reach even more people and wider community needs. They are dedicated to making a positive impact in the lives of those they serve, and the new name will help them achieve these goals.

Embrave embodies commitment to the community, its people and its partners. They are pursuing excellence in the future of community corrections and beyond. They are taking a hard look at the various factors at play in the lives of people in need and asking, “How can we transform this problem and need?”.

The future of Embrave glows brightly, and it is the dedication and commitment of our staff members in the organization who are making the impact that will transform people’s lives in the future. Embrave is constantly innovating and expanding programs to reach more people in need, and the team is passionate about making a difference. With their help, Embrave will continue to grow and make a lasting impact on the lives of those they serve.
