Our executive director's brothers and nephew were in and out of prison, and her oldest brother was killed in Attica. There were NO reentry programs to assist them in returning home productively, and their mother could not find any resources. Their criminal backgrounds kept them from getting employment, housing, or medical assistance. God led Sharon Jones to start this program in Mississippi in memory of her mom and brother John Milton Cameron.
