Susan Layng “Canadian Justice: Is there Hope after Prison?”
Sep 4 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am

Our 1st principal states we believe in the worth and dignity of every human being. Can this include convicted felons? Susan will take us on an exploration of what it was like to work with Federal incarcerated inmates, our parole system and life after prison. Her message encourages us to open ourselves to the possibility of Healing and Hope in an otherwise lost and forgotten segment of our society.
