This program is awesome. Everybody deserves a second chance.

Even child molesters?

[@khxliakhxlia3605]

Not everyone but definitely some ppl who are genuinely trying to be better

Best news this should be in all states, all we need is to be able to change one live at the time to get to many lives. Great job our government should be helping our people first so we can help others in future

I love this, I hope more facilities do this.

[@jordanaguirre2540]

This is honestly a good start god bless that man

[@tola5395]

That's amazing, most people would ignore them.

Genius!!! Look always boosts confidence!

These are the things that need to happen to help reduce recidivism rates and prison populations. Treating someone as a human being can go a long way. Education and someone to believe them can make all the difference in the world.

Well said, I agree @MissJellybean

I use to also donate business attire to people that were in long term rehab because some came in with clothes not fitting for a job interview. It’s hard enough for people getting out of jail or rehab to get a job and start fresh without having to worry about what to wear

[@rridderbusch518]

My late mother donated her nicer clothing to a women's shelter, along with a handmade quilt for each. In my large city there's no info about a drop-off point. What a waste!

[@bassmangotdbluz3547]

What a great idea. You help these people reintegrate back into society beginning with dignity & respect. A winning game plan if ever I heard one. Sow? Reap!

[@blainemitchell]

There should also be a tailor. It helps if the clothes have a fantastic fit It could be inmates that do that as well.

I love this!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@KaosTheory89]

finally good news

[@chevellebelair1402]

People treat you how you look.

[@deputy3690]

It's okay if it is really a second chance and not a third forth or fifth chance.

[@onatarabandrui8375]

You can go through all of that and because you have a felony record you will not be able to apply for certain jobs and you definitely will not get hired.
