Comment
Everyone has a story, and we’d like for you to tell your story. Have you ever been in jail or served time at a particular prison? Are you a family member or friend who has a loved one that’s locked up? If so, tell their story.
By telling your story, you help other people who are in the same situation, or facing the same situation – because they will have an idea about what to expect, and won’t feel alone because they someone else has been there before.
