Inheriting the Kingdom
Our vision is to reduce the recidivism rate (returning to prison)
by helping the ex-inmate to become a crime-free productive citizen again.
When an inmate is released from prison with $25 in his pocket, no family, no friends left, no food, no future, very few work skills, what is he going to do in 24 hours? What are his chances for successful re-entry into today's society without any help? What are his chances of getting caught up in the REVOLVING DOOR back to prison?
It is obvious to see why so many people coming out of prison return again and again. It is our heart and intention to help stop this continual cycle and transform the ex-offender into a law abiding, self-sustaining citizen.
Jesus said . . . "for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me . . . inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me."

Our
Mission
To STOP THE REVOLVING PRISON DOORS by doing whatever it takes to reach the unreachable and the hurting and to offer them a second chance at life, aiding them in their restoration and growth towards becoming a self- sufficient crime-free citizen who will not return to prison.
It is our goal to show these men the love of God by helping them understand their identity in God and to think about every decision they make and how it will affect their lives.
The Urgent Need for After-Care
Why does the ex-offender need help with his transition back into civilian life?
The first 48 hours are the most critical! They will experience emotions they didn’t expect and are not equipped to handle. During the first 3 months, without help during their difficulties, they may give up and resort back to crime to survive. They may feel “thrown away and forgotten” and lost all incentive to achieve. Advances in technology since their incarceration will overwhelm them.
Most of us make 300 to 500 decisions in a day, the inmate only makes about 25 decisions. They could be living in a state of indecision. The thoughts of freedom and being on their own scares them to death. They will have shame and bitterness to overcome due to their bad choices they made in the past. Many will think they were over-punished and find it hard to forgive and move ahead productively.
A Message From Our Founder
Tom Allanson
"I am so thankful to God for calling me into this wonderful ministry for the last 25 years and walking with me, my Board members, our staff, and ALL of our supporters that have believed in Set Fee After Care Ministry to help us to help others get their SECOND CHANCE, graduate the program and return to their families as a new man.
There are over 50 thousand incarcerated in Georgia and only 11 website approved THOR houses for men. It's not very good odds to get a SECOND CHANCE to straighten your life from mistakes you made in the past, got you incarcerated, and stopped your life of valuable growth to God, family and to society where we must live. SET FREE AFTER CARE MINISTRY is the critical part to restoration. Please help us to be a blessing to these men."
