What We Do
The One Stop Shop Cville is community event held at Carver Recreational Center once a month from 12pm-3pm where multiple service providers, ranging from healthcare services to rent relief, come together in order to help individuals returning to the Charlottesville community from incarceration at one central location. The One Stop Shop also serves individuals regardless of incarceration status at no cost to attendees while also providing community, music, and food.
Who We Are
One Stop Shop Cville is the brain child of Martize Tolbert (UVa Edge '21) who realized there was a need for folks reentering into society from incarceration. Martize is on the steering committee of the Albemarle-Charlottesville Reentry Council and the advisory board of Network2Work and UVA’s Pipelines and Pathways. Through Redemption Mentoring Services, he mentors at-risk kids in Charlottesville and surrounding counties, and works closely with Readykids RealDads program. In 2020, he co-founded a non-profit organization called Peace in the Streets, whose mission is to provide Charlottesville’s Black community with new tools and methods to constructively resolve conflicts without involving law enforcement.
