PEAC Presentation at ASU

Kirstin and Jonathon recently met with members of ASU's Prison Education Awareness Club to talk about ATLaS' work on reentry and reducing recidivism.  We were so impressed with the verve and passion of the students who participate in PEAC.  As members of PEAC, they teach classes to prisoners housed in Arizona state facilities.  And now several of them want to expand their volunteer work to include working with ATLaS.  We are thrilled to have the opportunity to work with them.  We will be presenting to their group again in early 2017 about the Mass Incarceration Continuum, a theory on the effects of mass incarceration published by members of the Advocacy in Action Coalition, a national working group Kirstin and Jonathon belong to.  We will also be presenting at PEAC's annual conference and unveiling our plan for a correctional alternative.  Stay tuned!
