From newsroom to jail. Andrew Visconti’s fascinating journey started in journalism and evolved into a memoir writing program for incarcerated individuals. Join us for this very special Knowledge Friday in which Visconti talks about the experience he gained working with inmates. Since 2023, he has led workshops that foster personal growth behind bars and uses storytelling to guide transformation among the incarcerated population.
April is National Second Chance Awareness Month, which aims to reduce recidivism and highlights the barriers to reintegration that formerly incarcerated individuals face. With this in mind, this program intends to shine a light on the power of support and community in the walk toward rehabilitative justice.
