Landing Strip Meeting, Manhattan, NY

Landing Strip

We are a group of men and women who meet to offer a welcoming hand to those with some AVP experience, who are going through the transition back to society.  We have learned that often the most difficult bid begins upon release from prison.

Meetings are 6 pm – 8 pm the first Tuesday and the third Wednesday of every month in Manhattan.

We meet in one of the rooms at the Friends (Quaker) Meeting House which is between 2^nd and 3^rd Avenues and 15^th and 16^th Streets at 15 Rutherford Place in Manhattan. 

·        Dinner as well as transportation reimbursement ($4) are provided at the meetings.

·        Landing Strip serves those interested in finding a safe place where the challenges of transition can be shared openly and most importantly, understood by those who have already "been there" and face the same challenges.

At this time we do not have services such as housing, job references, food or clothing.  What we do have is continuing “a community based on honesty, respect and caring.”  Our members give out on-going information that is helpful in the transition process.
