“I'm very happy to be a part of this program. I've been drawn to the idea corresponding with somebody in prison for a long time. I wasn't exactly sure how or in what capacity I should go about it. When I saw your program, I knew this was it. I'm so thrilled to be a part of this. Thank you all for all you do. It makes my heart happy to know y'all are making a difference in so many people's lives.” - A.R.E. Prison Outreach Volunteer Mentor
