Testimonials

{I... want to pay The Community Staff a great nod of respect and show my appreciation for all of the hard work that y'all do. It's vital that y'all be lifted up and encouraged for all of your efforts in advocating for us behind the walls. Please stay empowered and know that all of your work is critical to the success of those of us who knowingly and unknowingly truly need it.

{Your support added a great sense of value knowing there are people in society who can see beyond a person's poor judgment, mistakes, and crimes. Your gestures and thoughts have provided opportunities to believe in the good of people, forgiveness is real, and we are not alone.  Whether your team provides support through offering a simple letter, information, or a good book, organizations and programs such as yours have provided incarcerated persons something that cannot be had elsewhere: the feeling of... having value beyond that of what we experience each in our incarceration. Although you may not hear this... as frequently as you should, the work you provide is priceless.... On behalf of myself and all those you support, thank you.    

{I was recently released from Oregon Correctional Center... The Community letter was a god send. It kept everything real and gave me a contact to the outside. A very important point of access to humane life... Thank you very much. I'm enclosing what I can afford at this time... I wish I could send more.
