End of the Road

Our program has come to a bittersweet end.  We are sad to leave FCI Morgantown, the participants, and staff there.   All of the volunteers and staff here at English 304 Community Education have created many lasting relationships that will flourish for years to come.  We are very excited to say that our program has been successful here!

More than 50% of our inmates have gotten jobs after completing our program.  They are very excited to begin this new adventure in life and are thankful for all of our support and compassion.  A few of the participants wanted to let all of our readers, volunteers, and donators know that they appreciate everything you have done to further their education and help them make a step towards a better life.


The Resume Your Life!:  A Literacy Program for the Incarcerated has been such a success, FCI Morgantown's warden, Captain Kragen, has asked that we do the program every year!  We already have many willing participants that want to change their lives and learn new skills that lead to decreased recidivism.  Again, thank you readers for your support and please stay tuned for more information on our newer programs.
