Returning to the Community Simulation Event Oct. 16

Past event
Oct 16, 2014, 4:30 to 8:30 PM

Please join us for a simulation event for community members…Walking in the shoes of those released from prison. Join fellow community members for an exciting interactive event, which simulates the experience of formerly incarcerated individuals returning to the community. This free event allows participants to develop a greater and much clearer understanding of the tasks and demands placed upon an individual leaving prison and returning to life outside. By “walking in the shoes” of a returning prisoner, each participant will be exposed to the stressors and conflicting priorities these individuals must negotiate to avoid violating the conditions of their release and re-establish themselves as full members of the community. Come play the role and learn what it’s like — through hands-on experience! This event is free of charge. Participants must register by October 13th. Call 476-0276, or register online at www.gbcjc.org.
Sponsored by the Greater Barre Community Justice Center, Barre Partnership and Barre City for citizens of the greater Barre area. Held at Alumni Hall (connected the Barre Auditorium). Oct 16, 4:30-8:30. Remember to register! 476-0276.
