Join us for our monthly Embraced:Fully Angel Team Workshop on Thursday, March 19, 2026 at 6:00 PM (Pacific) on Zoom. Guests are always welcome!
This monthly gathering is a welcoming space to explore how we can support returning citizens—individuals coming home from incarceration—on their path toward stability, healing, and freedom.
Together we’ll discuss:
- 💫 What is an Angel Team?
- 👥 Who can join or start one?
- 🕊️ How can churches and volunteers make a meaningful impact?
💖 What Angel Teams Do
Embraced:Fully Angel Teams walk alongside returning community members to help them rebuild their lives — offering practical help like housing, transportation, and employment connections, and most importantly, a caring, faith-based community that welcomes them home.
Welcome AmiLynne Carroll — National Angel Team Coordinator!
We are thrilled to announce that AmiLynne Carroll is joining Embraced:Fully as our National Angel Team Coordinator. AmiLynne will be working alongside our Angel Teams across the country to strengthen coordination, support new teams as they form, and help ensure that every returning community member has a welcoming network waiting for them.
Join us Thursday to meet AmiLynne and hear about her vision for growing and connecting our Angel Team network nationwide.

Support Embraced:Fully

Tax-deductible through our fiscal sponsor, The Principle Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. On either form, choose Embraced Fully in the Fund menu.

- Ready for Reentry — keeping the course on tablets in prisons and following up with learners who ask to be connected.
- Monthly gatherings — the Interview Series and Angel Team Workshops that equip chaplains, churches, and families.
