Embrace the Power of Second Chances.
About Our Program
Our Life Skills Speakers' Program teaches participants how to reconnect with their true self and believe in themselves. Participants learn the importance of not using firearms and the benefits of making good choices; and how to live a law-abiding life.
In some cases, the speakers have spent more than thirty years incarcerated and changed their lives and are able to teach clients the benefits of living life without violating the law. The workshop provides an upfront and truthful examination of life's realities from the offender's perspective, and aims to guide clients towards a more constructive path.

Peer pressure is a huge problem for our younger generation in today’s society which causes them to transgress. This portion of the course is designed to build character and show clients how to completely destroy their false self and teach them how to love themselves.
Each client will receive a Certificate of Completion, recognizing his/her success. Each client will invite family members/friends to celebrate their success with them. The number of guests for each client will be determined by the space available to us.
