Real Impact

Message from a Warden

After visiting USP Florence, I received a message from the warden thanking me for my time and speaking about the "positive vibe on the USP compound" after I finished the full day of presentations.

"We just got back from a seminar and it was very nice to go to it n hear the dude. He did 26 years in prison and he got out n changed his life. I'm interested in his program 'Preparing for Success after Prison.' His name is Michael Santos."
