What can we say about Al?

A man who’s been in our lives for thirty years.  As they moved Brett throughout the prison system over the years, there he’d be… I can remember when I’d visit Brett; more times than I’d like to count. There’d be Al; cool AF… Proclaiming with such swagger, “The princess has arrived…” A good looking, hardworking man of incredible character.  Always there?  We now know why? He was supposed to be part of our lives.

Father Panik Village. A story of survival.

What child should ever wake up to an environment of gun violence?  Beaten as a kid because there was no hope; a three year old who had to survive pure chaos, as well as the scars on his back.  Why would new projects be any different?  Without intervention; a shift in our thinking, the cycle will continue…

A man who now understands…

Why he has had a constant, low level of anxiety his entire life? A survivor of prison and the streets, once President of Nation Gang. A man committed to his community to ensure their future is bright.
