We invite you to attend and listen to individuals sharing their stories of life before, within and outside of incarceration.
People returning to our city after being incarcerated face many challenges. They’ll share first-hand stories about their lives inside prison and what it’s like adjusting to life on the outside. Hear the lived experiences of our prison system and learn how you can get involved in the many organizations that provide services both inside and outside of prisons. Let these courageous stories change your perspective and motivate you to act.

This event is free, but we ask you to make a donation if you can. Click here or text “SAI” to 44-321 on your smartphone.
