RE: A Geek in Prison & Socioeconomic Observations Mashup - A Life Series by Charlie Shrem (Part 8 - InterPrison Exchange & Keyboard Training)

in #story8 years ago (edited)

Great post & series! I did a little volunteer literacy work at Riker's in tandem with a yoga & meditation program. It was a great experience working with the inmates, but highly frustrating dealing with the prison system itself. After all of the red tape of getting background checked and prison IDs, the wardens office would often turn us around at the door for some missed paperwork on their end after our hour-long commute. I love the idea of typing being taught in prisons however and if there was an easy way to work with the systems it would be exciting to be invovlved in such a program. Maybe us Steemers could make it happen!?
