incarcerated and
​system-impacted individuals

The experience of incarceration can, and should, be a time of personal transformation where men and women who have been isolated from the social and economic mainstream can learn to assess and reset their perspectives and experiences with the world by learning empowering skills in communication and contemplative practices like council.

Center for Council believes that transformation must occur at the individual level, family level, the institutional level, the community level, and the societal level.  Our intention is to build the confidence, education, and advocacy skills of our program participants. Our council-based programming creates a vehicle for participants’ self-expression and self-advocacy, so that their engagement with the wider world helps to change prevailing beliefs.
