Showing Up For Second Chances

LINC staff and residents joined Second Chance advocates in Raleigh for the NC Second Chance Alliance Day of Action on January 14. Participants encouraged the NC House to pass The Second Chance Act.


Each year more than 22,000 inmates are released from North Carolina’s state prison system. Ninety-eight percent of the inmates in prison today will be released in the future.

Dates & acknowledgements to celebrate!

Acknowledgements:

Congratulations M.E. Roberts Transitional Living Campus resident Silena Luther for earning Outback Steakhouse B.O.H. Outbacker of the Month. (photo left)

M.E.R. residents Alfonzo Brooks, Henry Harrison, Ronald Binkley, Timothy Start, and Timothy Locklear, planned and hosted an appreciation lunch for LINC case managers and staff. The men provided a generous spread of chicken, mac-n-cheese, and sides catered by Golden Corral, and delivered moving acknowledgements of the support they have received as they work on turning their personal setbacks into comebacks. In January, Frank Brunson, an M.E.R. graduate, brought New Year’s dinner for M.E.R. residents. (photo below)
