Thanks to our speaker June 24 - Joseph Jackson, Director of Leadership Development at Maine Inside Out.

Maine Inside Out collaborates with incarcerated and formerly incarcerated people to create original theater, which is performed both inside and outside of correctional facilities.  Mr. Jackson focused his talk on school-aged children, and how his organization is working to break the cycle of youth who act up in school ending up incarcerated.
