Victim Comments

“The first thing that victims must do is learn to live again. This program helps them to accept that change and learn to live and trust again.”

Inmate Comments

“The best part about this program is the small group setting which allows both victim and inmate to be open and honest with one another and the trust, confidence that is built through these groups.”
