STARFISH STORIES INC

Starfish Stories Inc. operates as The Francisco Homes, a Los Angeles–based 501(c)(3) that provides transitional housing and wraparound reentry services for men returning from long-term incarceration. The organization centers restorative justice and individualized service plans, offering case management, counseling, life-skills classes, community service opportunities and housing supports to promote stable community reintegration. In recent years The Francisco Homes has expanded arts- and peer-led programming to support healing and public storytelling by formerly incarcerated residents, and it partners with local arts and county agencies to deliver rehabilitative workshops and staged/filmed performances. The organization reported growing operating revenues and served roughly 170–190 residents annually in its most recent fiscal filings, reflecting measurable program scale and increased funder support.
