From the Founders & Board
Lee Thorsness, board vice chair, shares what makes Truth Be Told so special
In 2006, 48.8 percent of citizens re-entering society after prison were re-incarcerated. In 2007, the re-incarceration rate of Truth Be Told graduates was 24.3% — half that of the general population.
So Truth Be Told is moving this in the right direction; however, we need to continue to improve this rate.
