Ruth, Homestead Correctional Institution, Inside Out Participant 2002

“I think our group creates together something that is beautiful. I’ve learned to build better relationships. There was a time when I did not care about anyone, and I did not need anyone. I’ve learned to re-evaluate my thinking and re-evaluate people......Relationships are important. I find that if there’s any discord of any sort, especially with those that you consider a friend and care about, you try to find a way to work it out and make it better. So, I think the value of relationships...it has a greater importance to me now, since being in this program.”

Debbie, Broward Correctional Institution, Inside Out Participant 1995, now released
