If you believe people deserve a chance at redemption, then you’ll want to hear what one counselor is doing to help ex-offenders find their way back into society. For starters, they don’t go home right after jail. Instead, they move into a home for recovering addicts, then dive head first into a rigorous program. Bev Tauke shares: "And what they realize is that I’m not this big clump of damaged goods; I’m not this loser. I’m someone that went through something that was very traumatic. I didn’t have the tools needed as an adult to fix it as I should have, but now I have that opportunity."
