It really is such an
honour to be here
today so thank you.
The amount of letters that
I get with people just needing
transportation to job
interviews, to jobs.
These people want to work,
they want the best outcome
and I'm so happy to be here
today amongst people
that want the same thing
and that really believe in
supporting their reentry.
So, I'm so happy to announce
today that we have
a ride-share partnership
where formerly incarcerated
people will be gifted gift cards
so that they can get rides
to and from job interviews,
to and from jobs, family members
and that is so important,
so needed and I just
want to thank the president for
really standing behind this issue
and seeing the compassion
that he's had for criminal justice
has been really remarkable.
So I just want to thank all
of the organisations
that are partnering with
everything that's going on
and really being supportive
'cause it really does mean a lot
to so many people that I've
had the pleasure to speak to.
And I think the ultimate goal
is everyone wants
the community to be safe
and the more opportunity
we have and that they have and
support that we help give them
the safer everyone will be and
the recidivism rate will be ...
continue to just get lower
and so I'm just thankful
to everyone here that's in support
and so proud of this partnership
with the ride-share organisation.
