Stick around to see my story along with many of the friend's I've met while incarcerated, and some who still are. I'll take you into the mind of a Formidable Felon and show you that we are capable of being productive members of society. I want those struggling with reentry to receive hope from these stories.
Our goal is to decrease recidivism rates substantially by providing felon friendly apartments and programs that provide the skills, resources, & alliances needed to successfully transition back into society.
Your donation will help provide a Formidable Felon in need the tools to succeed.
Thank you for your generosity.
