Coles The Ripple Effects of College Prison Programs: Hope, Humanity, and Transformation at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Thirteen men sentenced to die by incarceration at a maximum-security prison pushed themselves to enroll in the first face-to-face bachelor's degree completion program for incarcerated students in the state of California. Sentenced to life without possibility of parole, they pursued higher education as the path toward rehabilitation and transformation, changing the trajectory of their lives. Based on in-depth interviews, each journey is at times heartbreaking, infuriating, and deeply inspiring, as the men work through early childhood traumas, learning disabilities, failures, and guilt. As co-founder and administrator of The Prison Graduation Initiative through California State University, Los Angeles, author Taffany Lim also explores her own growth and evolution as a result of years of investment in each student's personal success.
