The Hustler Files Ep 24
THE LAST MILE, FOR MANY, BECOMES A FIRST STEP
In 2010, Venture Capitalist, Chris Redlitz spoke to incarcerated men at the infamous San Quentin Prison. That visit inspired him to launch a technical program, for those incarcerated, that would disrupt the incarceration cycle and offer certifications in coding to enable those returning to society the opportunity to find employment. The Last Mile technical program is now offered in 21 classrooms across 7 State prisons and has assisted 467 returning citizens in successful re-entry. Molly and Kevin Kelly are two of those returned citizens who now work for The Last Mile as Returned Citizen Advocates and along that journey they also found love.

The Hustler Files Ep 23
WE CAN’T KNOW WHAT WE’RE NOT EXPOSED TO
When a house of corrections is located in a rural, farming area, it’s a no-brainer to include a gardening program in the vocational and educational offerings to those incarcerated. The ‘students’ of the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office get both classroom, and hands-on exposure to Gardening, Herbalism, and Nutrition Classes to increase collaboration skills and decrease stress. There is a level of therapy that growing and sharing food offers, including future opportunities in the agricultural industry once they are released. Of course, there are other vocational programs too, and work-release opportunities for those close to release, hoping to find a path once they have fulfilled their time served.
