We believe in second chances.
We believe we are stronger together.
With a focus on retribution and punishment, the criminal legal system overlooks the critical fact that 95% of people who are incarcerated will return home. The Circle is committed to helping people who are incarcerated and formerly incarcerated find paths to meaningful experiences and employment through partnerships within fair chance industries. We are proud to collaborate with people behind the walls and when they come home.
We believe storytelling can create a more just world.
Our team of experts with lived experience believes deeply in the power of storytelling. The Circle Team knows the impact art making has had on their lives, relationships, dreams and futures — we want to share that with you.
