Prospect Opportunity Program
"We have a responsibility to unlock the potential of our citizens, and those that have completed their time in prison, have great potential to improve our community." - Founder of the POP program
“We lose our right to be surprised that California has the highest recidivism rate in the country if we refuse to hire folks who have taken responsibility for their crimes and have done their time.” ― Greg Boyle
