Dismas Charities Inc.

Dismas Charities Inc., a Louisville, Kentucky-based nonprofit organization, operates residential reentry centers and administers home confinement programs for federal offenders as a prime contractor to the U.S. Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons, competing exclusively in full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designations across its entire footprint of 1,185 awards totaling $3.02 billion in combined potential value.

Dismas Charities' capability footprint centers on federal offender reintegration services delivered through residential reentry centers (halfway houses) and home confinement monitoring programs. The organization provides transitional housing, rehabilitation programming, job training, substance abuse treatment, and comprehensive case management designed to facilitate successful community reentry and reduce recidivism. Representative work includes a $3.527 million firm fixed-price delivery order from the Bureau of Prisons for residential reentry center and home confinement services in Chatham County, Georgia, with a home confinement radius extending 100 miles from the facility (awarded August 1, 2026, completion July 31, 2027); a $22.928 million single-award indefinite delivery contract for similar services in Orange County, Florida, including day reporting center operations (awarded July 1, 2024, completion June 30, 2027); and a $38.923 million single-award IDIQ for residential reentry center and home confinement services in Atlanta, Georgia, covering 165 residential beds per day and 83 home confinement placements per day across Fulton and DeKalb counties (awarded July 1, 2023, completion June 30, 2028).

The vendor's customer concentration is extreme. The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Central Office represents 87% of awards by count and 91% of combined potential value, with 916 awards valued at $2.76 billion. The remaining customer agencies—the Bureau of Prisons itself, the Southeast Regional Office, the South Central Regional Office, and the North Central Regional Office—collectively account for 7% of awards and 1% of dollars. This concentration reflects Dismas Charities' singular focus on federal corrections services; no other federal agencies appear in the award footprint.

Dismas Charities holds multiple single-award indefinite delivery contracts with the Bureau of Prisons, which serve as parent vehicles for the majority of delivery-order task orders. The top-five parent vehicles by combined potential value are the Indefinite Delivery Contract 15BRRC19D00000176 (14 task orders, $128.6 million), Indefinite Delivery Contract 15BRRC19D00000008 (15 task orders, $33.6 million), Indefinite Delivery Contract 15BRRC19D00000009 (14 task orders, $20.1 million), Indefinite Delivery Contract DJB200931 (15 task orders, $15.3 million), and Indefinite Delivery Contract 15BRRC19D00000007 (14 task orders, $15.2 million). These IDIQs enable the Bureau of Prisons to issue delivery orders for residential reentry and home confinement services on an as-needed basis across dozens of geographic service areas nationwide, from Atlanta to Tucson to Omaha to Honolulu, with ultimate completion dates extending through 2030 and 2031.

Activity has grown modestly year over year—42 awards in 2022 to 66 in 2024, declining slightly to 60 in 2025—with 36 awards carrying combined potential value of $89.9 million reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore facing recompete during that window. Thirty-six awards with combined potential value of $89.9 million are scheduled for completion in the next twenty-four months, representing recompete exposure for competitors and contract renewal risk for Dismas Charities.

Dismas Charities operates exclusively as a prime contractor; the source contains no subcontract activity. The organization's 1,145 awards under NAICS code 623990 (Other Residential Care Facilities) and PSC code G004 (Social Rehabilitation) represent the vast majority of its footprint. The vendor has no presence in other federal agencies, other NAICS codes, or other service lines; its business model is entirely dependent on Bureau of Prisons residential reentry and home confinement procurement across a nationwide network of facilities.
