Gang Prevention Intervention in a Maximum Security Prison

Every month I visit a program in the Arkansas Department of Corrections Maximum Security Unit. The program is called UNITY (You and I Teaching Youth) and was founded by inmate Alvin Williams, Correctional Officer Major Jack Davis and prison psychologist Richard Moore. The program works to reduce violence in the prison and the streets.

Inmates apply to the program and must complete several months worth of classes. E-Mail me if you have further questions.

The below video is a short clip of the current class's opening ceremony.
