Why do you come to work at Root & Rebound every day?

At Root & Rebound, I get to extend sensitivity and humanity to our clients, build community and joy, and empower our clients to take control of their own lives. People with lived experience of incarceration should be leading the movement to end the violence of the carceral state, and it is a privilege to be able to follow our clients in fighting for a better world.
