Hi Charlie
Thanks for getting in touch.
Have you heard of St Giles Trust? They are an ex-offenders charity doing peer advising to support ex-offenders from the prison door into jobs and work. It's a very effective programme and the Council on Social Action is looking at the learning from this and other peer mentoring programmes in its latest work: Side by Side.
Another venture I've come across via the Council is Storybook Dads - really worth checking out. http://www.storybookdads.co.uk/indexn... May be there's a link there for you interms of enabling prisoners to create their own stories/art/? for their children using a similar model. Just an idea.
All the best,
Rebecca

Right on Robert
Dr Yunus is about 2 things that I beieve every nation needs right now:
1 investing in job creation
2 designing organisations humanly energised to serve a critical social need not yet served
I am writing from Washington DC where there's a rising hope that Yunus and Obama are very similar community-up leaders. Obama's mum was also a pioneer of microcredit
I feel is so urgent to try and connect community-up networks - love questions chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk

It was so inspiring to meet some wonderful, caring, inspiring, compassionate people who work from the heart. Let's take this positive energy out to the wider world and make a bigger difference to peoples lives. Please create as many chain reactions using the Yunus dvd so we can reach the millions of people out there...
Namaste.
