Thanks Stephen for your thoroughness in addressing this issue, and letting us meet and come to know Linda Brown! Her efforts are so commendable!! I'm reminded of how many times I may receive an invite to a luncheon, or an event with pricetags of $50, 75, 100, and sometimes higher...and think I'd rather 'write a check' to Linda than to 'buy that seat'!!!
Reducing recidivism is not just about classes in anger management. This is a program that allowed true learning, trust building, and relationships. Wonder if there was thoughts given to negotiating a compromise that would have allowed the program to continue. This one truly a loss..to the state, BLM, and our inmates.
