About us
Founded as the S.C. Therapeutic Association in 1962 by the Reverend Eli Alston Wilkes (a Methodist Minister), the organization’s original mission was to provide rehabilitative services to adults released from correctional facilities in South Carolina. Today, the Alston Wilkes Society (AWS) is a fully accredited nonprofit organization, providing direct services throughout South Carolina to not only offenders and former offenders; but also at-risk youth, veterans, and their families. The agency’s mission of Rebuilding Lives for a Safer Community is carried out by providing those most at risk with the tools necessary to become productive citizens. Mission: Rebuilding Lives for a Safer Community Vision: To provide offenders, former offenders, the homeless, at-risk youth, veterans, and their families the tools they need to become productive citizens. Values Statement: Our primary responsibility is to those we serve. The success of the Alston Wilkes Society is measured by how we meet our responsibilities to the clients, volunteers, investors, other agencies, and each other. We operate in the spirit of doing unto others as we would have them do unto us.
