Rebuilding the website requires a 100s of hours, and I am grateful to Steve for working with me on the project. It’s an iterative process. We’ve had to evolve to accommodate the needs of thousands of people who will rely upon our platform to memorialize all the reasons they’re worthy candidates for higher levels of liberty. When we began building the platform, we didn’t have any members. Today, as I began my work, I see that we have 5,067 members. They’re building profiles, showing the steps that they’re taking to prepare for law-abiding, contributing lives upon release.

As the site matures, we’ll be able to use their stories to advocate for:

• Work release programs,
• Pathways to early termination of Supervised Release,
• Employment opportunities.

Our process has required multiple steps. First, we built a beta site, which we used until we grew to approximately 500 members. As we proved the concept, we had to rebuild the site to make it easier for people to have credentials that would allow them to manage their profiles and update at their discretion. With our continued growth, we had to build a hard-coded site, one that would allow us to scale to more than 50,000 participants. Then, we had to rebuild the website to accommodate the new information that we’re learning.

On December 24, Steve coded the new website, and launched it. That way, I could work through every page. I wrote with hopes of making it easier to navigate for each user group. Today I have to work through sections that I have not yet edited, including the links that originate from our main menu: Impact / Get Involved / Profiles / Blog.

After I finish with all the rewrites, I will begin creating new content. I will wait to finish coding all the suggestions that I am making before I start filming the new videos that will accommodate each page.

I’m grateful for this opportunity to create a platform that will help thousands of people earn freedom through merit.
