In reply to Kristina Ponting.

Sadly America has the highest recidivism rate for prisoners in the world. Fortunately this is starting to change as the powers that be over here have begin to realize the benefit of programs to help offenders build skills. But after prison support is almost non-existent. In this country, you spend years inside and when you get out you are simply expected to know how to function in a world that changed without you. This seldom works out for most. We need to do something like you guys have done in Sweden. When offenders have help re-integrating into society, their chances of success skyrocket.
I hope my program will be one more step towards making this a reality here!
