Participant feedback:
“It was a weight lifted off my shoulders to let the community know they can trust me now and in the future.”
“I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the program was much better than expected. The part I liked most was hearing other individual’s perspectives and sharing mine.”
“My favorite part was the circle discussion and getting to know what the victims went through.”
“They helped me realize the true consequences of what I had done.”
“Sharing throughout the circle was a great part of the group. It provided me with things that I can think about, relate to, and apply to my current and future life.”
“How people can feel safe about sharing their stories and not be judged.”
“I enjoyed hearing the emotional stories and it is good to know that I am not the only one who has made a mistake.”
