Preparing Inmates For Re-Entry
Wednesday, April 27, 2011(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)
Friday at 5P is the deadline to donate books to area prison
libraries. The Community Services Agency is coordinating the book drive to help
overcome budget shortfalls and prepare inmates for re-entry into the community.
“Most people in prison usually get out someday and return to the community,”
says CSA Executive Director Kathleen McKirchy. “Anything we can do to help
them prepare for re-entry while they are still inside is a worthwhile
venture.” Click
