Rebuilding Lives

Donate

Help us reduce recidivism by providing more housing that is walking distance from employment and help us create a community that promotes active and healthy progress.

For over 20 years Hickman’s has offered employment opportunities for individuals currently incarcerated and after incarceration. The goal has always been to help people gain skills and experience that will develop them into productive members of society. They lead by example and are major reason why Hickman’s is a leader in the egg industry.

This Reentry Program has served as a foundation for rebuilding lives that were once lost. Furthermore, the growing housing community consisting of 70+ individual apartments strategically placed on the farm, serve as a foundation for stable living and proximity to work. Housing, employment, and transportation are barriers that our community members no longer face. Each victory is a win for the individual, our company, and the community at large.

As an incentive for being a good neighbor and successfully transitioning out of our housing community at the one year mark, each occupant will be reimbursed in the amount of 50% of everything they paid into the program fee (rent). These funds have frequently been used to purchase a home or at the very least put a down payment on an apartment. Of course, continued employment is desired but we also take pride in knowing that most are ready and qualified to be employed outside of our company.

Hickmans Family Farms strives to provide our staff with affordable housing by first recruiting labor nearest our farms. We understand there is a lack of affordable housing inventory throughout Maricopa County. We are excited to announce that plans are in place to offer temporary residential homes to afford our staff the ability to advance in their careers while they search for a permanent home. Being a good neighbor starts with the ability to live in a safe home.
