Our History
Our history is years of collaboration with a powerful team. Our team was developed with a retired Warden, formerly Incarcerated persons, respected community professionals, and several crime victims. Spending decades in prison without change is a concern as well as damage suffered by victims. Incarcerated persons needed more, and we had a desire to develop a program that allowed offenders to genuinely understand the pain and loss inflicted upon others and themselves. We were aware that mass incarceration was the primary reason men and women of color would spend decades behind bars. Now it's about victimization, accountability, responsibility, genuine remorse, and ending recidivism.
We developed an intense, powerful, unique program that works. Our goal is to equip, educate, and provide tools for a new journey, crime, and drug-free. The United States prison system has been broken at the seams for decades and it will probably take even more time to fix it.
In 2009, The Remember Program was created, and in August 2019, we became an official Tax Exempt Nonprofit Organization. Hundreds of formerly incarcerated persons were desperately seeking to understand the pain they caused by victimizing other people. The Remember Me Program offered an intense workshop and we were successful in changing lives and hearts by facilitating this program to over 800 incarcerated and formerly incarcerated persons until the unexpected happened, COVID-19. We were not allowed to facilitate inside any prisons or facilities and the program lay dormant. Since then the program prepared for any future occurrences by developing a self-help study guide so the participants or victim could continue and complete the program should any other barrier arise. We are ready to change lives and hearts.
