Executive Director of College & Community Fellowship, Vivian Nixon shares her thoughts on how important it is for society to reimagine how it views and treats formerly incarcerated individuals.
“I think the easiest issue to solve is the way we think about the people we're serving. Rather than having this transactional relationship with them, a checklist of things they need to become before they're acceptable to society, let's have a transformational relationship. And that’s why I believe education is important. Because education is not a transaction. It is a transformational process.”
