Testimonials
Shana’s Story
At the end of May 2014 my ex-husband was sentenced to 10 years to life in prison when I was 33 years old and my son was 6. I didn’t have a support system to help me navigate the emotions that come along with a loved one being sent to prison for what could be forever. I didn’t know [what] to tell my son.
My ex-husband was initially in a facility that did not offer the classes he is required to take to be released. It wasn’t until about 6 months ago, he was finally moved to a facility that does. He is now on the waiting list for this class but has been denied parole 2 times because he hasn’t taken the required class.
I write this today and share my story because I want others out there in these situations to know you are not alone. We have a kinship that some may not speak openly about but it’s there and I’m here if you need someone.
