From Trouble to Triumph

True Stories of Redemption from Drugs, Gangs, and Prison

Beschreibung

Tells stories of six former gang members, drug addicts, and incarcerated men who lived through intense incidents of violence as well as shifts in populations, industry, and means-and how they overcame the odds. The book provides an argument for restorative justice, drug treatment, mental health services, spiritual practices, jobs training, and the arts instead of mass incarceration.
