Desistance isn’t just about avoiding prison, it’s about building a new life that lasts. Here’s what helps people truly move forward: 💡 Hope and motivation to choose a new path 🧭 A new sense of self, “I’m more than my past” 🤝 Supportive relationships that believe in them ✅ Research shows that people who get training, stable jobs, and support after release are much less likely to return to prison. ✅ Meaningful employment reduces recidivism by up to 24% — and second-chance employees often have higher retention rates than their peers. ✅ People who receive education or skills training while incarcerated are 43% less likely to reoffend than those who don’t. At CCT, we support this vision by connecting people to housing, mental health care, job training, and consistent community — the key building blocks of a stable, thriving life. 🎯 Your gift helps someone move forward. 💻 Set up your 2026 recurring gift here: lnkd.in/eSrB36jg 💙💚✨ #desistancefromcrime #secondchanc...
