Since you helped me get my job back I have become a volunteer co-director of FirstFollowers a totally volunteer run re-entry program in my community. We are raising funds to pay stipends to people who have just returned from prison so they can be trained as community-based researchers. They will research re-entry related issues in our community and how to strengthen support for those with felony convictions. We have raised $5,000 through GoFundMe, $2,000 from separate contributions and aim to reach $10,000 by April 15. (we are tax deductible). For more information visit:
