Life after prison support in Australia 🇦🇺

“If you're scared right now, I get it. I've been there. For me it was about three years ago. I remember job applications and the box like it was yesterday. I picked up the guitar again. Bit by bit it comes back. Keep going, even slowly.”

“A note for the next person. I was where you are this time last year. It was job applications and the box and I couldn't see past it. This year I did a 5k, slowly. One day at a time.”

“I was in the same place nearly four years ago. For me it was a halfway house. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Praying for you.”

“Para el que empieza: no te voy a decir que es fácil. La calle es dura, la gente desconfía. Pero hay que buscarle. Yo encontré trabajo con mi hermano, y un taller de redes. No es lo mismo, pero es algo. Habla con alguien, no te guardes todo. Y busca una cosa pequeña que te guste, como mis rosas. Eso te sostiene.”
