“It’s like a whole new clean slate,” Tyron Pollard a program recipient said. “I was doing drugs before I got locked up … but I don’t want to do nothing but do right and strive to be a model citizen for my kids.” He continued, “For people to just reach out, willing to help out of the blue, them not knowing you from nobody…that’s a blessing,” Pollard expressed.
