Intensive Session: Impact vs. Impressions

SESSION INFO

Sunday, August 27, 2023
8:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Session Type: Intensive

There is an ever-widening gap between yesterday’s prevention and re-entry strategies and today’s needs. To prevent incarceration and help individuals succeed after release, strategies must encompass the development of good character, critical thinking, leadership and emotional management skills to thrive in today's society. Viable post-release opportunities will only be maximized by individuals who have mastered self-governance. This workshop shows attendees how to re-imagine the “relevant” strategies needed for healing today's culture.
