About Us

The lockdowns measures to reduce the spread of the COVID-19 have unprecedented social & economic impacts on people’s lives, affecting hardest those at the bottom of the income such as ex-prisoners. It is well known that most of the prisoners have low literacy and that upon release they face difficulties such as finding a steady job, that is a key dimension to stop re-offending. In fact, changes in economic factors can be associated with changes in crime, leading to identifiable crime ‘peaks’ during the time of crisis.

WE EXPECT TO HAVE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON PROMOTING PRISONERS’ SELF-AWARENESS OF THEIR CURRENT AND FUTURE INDIVIDUAL SKILL NEEDS UPON RELEASE.
