Meet the First Stop-Second Chance Board
I have been doing prison ministries since 2007, and seen many men and women leave prison who truly want to have a second chance in life with a legitimate job to support their family. With God's inspiration and intervention, I am determined to make a difference in the lives of the perviously incarcerated who want to turn their life around.
