People deserve practice, not just information
Pamphlets and checklists aren’t enough. Decision-making is a skill that improves with practice, especially under realistic conditions.
“No one should have to make the decisions of a lifetime without ever getting to practice them.”
Why Next Move™ exists
Every year, millions of people face life-defining transitions with no safe way to practice the decisions ahead. Someone leaving incarceration navigates housing, employment, and supervision simultaneously. A veteran returning to civilian life rebuilds an entire identity. A young person aging out of foster care makes adult decisions for the first time with no safety net. A domestic violence survivor plans a safe exit while managing court orders and custody. A person in recovery confronts every trigger the real world throws at them.
The decisions are interconnected, time-sensitive, and high-consequence. Getting one wrong can spiral. There’s no safe place to practice. Until now.
Next Move™ gives people the chance to navigate realistic branching scenarios, experiencing consequences, building judgment, and developing strategies, before the real decisions arrive. The first Next Move™ module serves reentry and alternative-to-incarceration (ATI) programs, currently available in all 50 states, each reflecting that state’s actual laws, programs, and resources. Next up: veterans in transition and youth aging out of foster care. Next Move™ is building toward every high-stakes life transition — domestic violence recovery, navigating court systems, sustaining sobriety, and more.
What Next Move™ believes
Built by people who understand the problem
Next Move™ scenarios are shaped by subject-matter experts and practitioners with direct knowledge of the transitions the platform covers — reentry, housing, recovery, court systems, workforce barriers, and family reunification.
Multilingual from day one
Next Move™ ships in four languages — English, Spanish, French, and Haitian Creole — so that more people can use the platform in the language they’re most comfortable with.
Free for the people Next Move™ serves
Next Move™ never charges the individuals who use the platform. Revenue comes from the institutions and agencies responsible for outcomes.
From the founder
Olga Milman, MBA, founded Next Move™ to build the decision-rehearsal infrastructure that high-stakes life transitions have always lacked. She is the founder of Tyche Consulting LLC. Her work is shaped by lived experience of the moments Next Move™ rehearses, and that experience informs every product, partnership, and policy decision the company makes. She holds the company’s patent-pending decision-training methodology and leads its 50-state, four-language, trauma-informed deployment across reentry, immigration, foster-care, veteran, and entrepreneurship populations.
Advisory Board
Next Move™’s advisory board brings operational depth in the exact spaces the platform serves — correctional-tablet distribution and reentry programming; enterprise-scale security and corrections-data compliance.
