Self Help Workshops

Self-Help Rehabilitation – Workshop Series

Our workshops are designed to empower individuals and provide them with the tools they need to overcome challenges and lead a positive and fulfilling life.

Whether you’re looking to break free from the cycle of domestic violence, gain valuable insights into gang intervention and prevention, or simply want to make a positive change in your life, our workshops cover a wide range of areas to cater to your specific needs.

We understand that rehabilitation is a journey, and that’s why our workshops are specifically tailored to address the unique challenges faced by individuals inside correctional institutions across California. Our experienced facilitators are dedicated to providing a safe and supportive environment where you can explore new strategies, gain valuable skills, and develop a strong support network.

By participating in our workshops, you will have the opportunity to learn from experts, engage in interactive exercises, and connect with others who are on a similar journey towards rehabilitation.

The Core

We aim to advance this program wherever needed to help men, women, and youth reshape their lives to become productive individuals within society. The program begins while participants are incarcerated and supports them through reentry. As participants are enrolled during incarceration, the curriculum and mentorship are tailored to their needs and interests. Participants who complete the required number of sessions earn a certificate, besides being linked to formerly incarcerated role models and a support infrastructure that guides them from incarceration through reentry.

The program’s overall theme is “It’s Never Too Late To Change,” participants complete assignments connecting this theme to their own experience. Another key emphasis of the curriculum is an exploration of how to be a mentor to someone else. The following questions drive discussions throughout the program:

  • Who are you today?
  • Will a mentee listen to you?
  • Have you changed?
  • Can you be trusted?
  • Are you willing to give up personal time for someone else?
  • What values do you have that can positively affect someone else?
  • Are you motivated to help guide someone in the right direction?
  • How far are you willing to help someone who cannot help themselves?
  • What does it mean to you to be a role model?

Besides these questions, the curriculum focuses on the following major topics:

  • Nine Steps to Street Gang Recovery
  • Domestic Violence Prevention
  • Mind Your Business (Self-Help and Self-Assessment Skills)
  • Straight Talk On Point (Communication & Soft Skills)
  • Resume Development & Interview Skills
  • Other modules are added according to the specific needs of participant cohorts.

Don’t let your past define your future.
