Your Ideas on Prison/Reentry Needed by Candidate for Georgia Governor
Yesterday, we were approached at our movable art display, voter registration and information kiosk in Washington, DC by a policy advisor for a reputable candidate for governor in the state of Georgia. He wants to create a platform for his candidate that will incorporate realistic ideas for prison and re-entry improvements. If you have any ideas for him, please send them to us and we will pass them along. He particularly wants to hear from people who have had experience with the prison system/re-entry process in Georgia. Please email us at staff@prisonsfoundation.org

Second Chance Act of 2007
Comment posted by Anonymous on Tue, 03/02/2010 - 4:03pmFBOP inmates indicate counselors say - "No One will be allowed 12 months in a "Community Correction Facility".
Per H. R. 1532 The Second Chance Act of 2007, the incentive for inmates to get their GED, take training classes & re-entry skills, is to get the maximum amount allowable in a CCC.
Why pass bills and fund these CCC's if they aren't used for the intended purposes????????????????????????
One who knows!
