I spent the last eight years of my teaching career teaching GED in the prison at Kyle, TX. It is a pre-release center for convicted drug offenders. It was the most rewarding experience I ever had. To be a part of helping those men believe in themselves so that they could pass the GED tests was truly a blessing. I learned so much from those guys and I literally saw men change before my eyes. God bless this PEP program!!!
Good stuff. As human beings we need to give second chances. We ain't God we can't judge. I'm happy there's people giving these guys a second chance. God bless.
Nice! I'm sharing this video link in my description as a followup for a similar video I made in case people want to learn more from other's testimonies.
This cause was also pioneered by a New York priest and a man know "Little Joe" , a former boy from George Junior Republic, who was given new chances to grow in "foster" homes in the early 1940s.

This is brilliant! Do we know how many PEP-inspired businesses succeed? I understand that the national rate is depressingly low.
Currently, I believe it is hovering at around 20%. The real key statistic is the less than 7% rate of PEP grads going back to prison.
