Tryout

Raequan was
arrested and
charged
as an adult
at 17. He spent 18 months
in jail, surrounded
by adults, before
coming home. YSRP partnered with
him and his
lawyer to get as
short a sentence
as possible,
and prepare for
his reentry. Once home,
Raequan was
accepted into a
fellowship program
for young people
that builds his
leadership skills. And, in 2020, Raequan will join other YSRP client-
partners, including former Juvenile Lifers,
to support one another through their reentry. In facilitated Intergenerational Circles,
they will collectively work
toward healing. And they will build their power
as agents of change.
