Meet Angelo & Tammar

In the winter of 2023, something incredible happened within the walls of our juvenile detention center. Our youth met Chris Wilson, the author of The Master Plan: My Life in Prison to a Life of Purpose. Each young individual was gifted a copy of his book.

As they read Wilson’s story, a remarkable transformation took place within our walls. A newfound dialogue emerged among the youth, filled with aspirations and dreams of forging meaningful lives beyond their present situations. Seeing this inspiring change, we understood the profound impact of Wilson’s book. We committed to sharing its transformative power with New York through an innovative partnership with the Chris Wilson Foundation.
