Why Erase Stigma

Darby Njos | Uncategorized | October 16, 2017

We have 7 houses. Why? 

We started a for-profit company, that is no booming. Why?

We have created a Drug Court house. Why?

We have created entrepreneur meetings in the jail and prison. Why?

We now have a conference that will unfold on Thursday. To answer why. 

 

Now I want to ask you some questions to ponder before you come to the conference. 

 

Why is 1 out of 20 citizens serving time in prison?

Why are 10,000,000 people released from county jail back into our communities annually? 

Why are 2/3 of people being released from Federal or State prison rearrested within 3 years?

Why is the recidivism rate for juveniles 75% when they become adults?

Why is the US 5% of the worlds populations, but we are 25% of the worlds prison populations?

 

Come join us at the Erasing Stigma conference this Thursday, so we can work together and change all of this. Together.
