Curriculum, sport, and showcase — one connected model that changes culture inside the walls and equips people for the life beyond them.
An eight-week course developed by Brett Hollins during his own incarceration. Participants move through a structured process of trauma reflection, value clarification, internal motivation, and personal goal-setting.
8-week curriculum
Mindset Mastery
A trauma-informed, eight-week course in mental discipline and emotional regulation, rooted in neuroscience, psychology, and performance science. Co-developed with Coach Charli Turner Thorne.
Community-building sports events that unite residents, correctional staff, and volunteers in one gym. Athletics break down barriers, instill discipline, and spark breakthroughs that last long after the final whistle.
Sport as a catalyst
Programming designed for women's cohorts, centered on self-love, belief, and the practical confidence to create a sustainable life beyond the walls. In their words: "I feel that I am able to create a sustainable life outside of here."
Showcases of art, music, writing, spoken word, sports, and innovation that challenge stigma, create real pathways, and let participants share their gifts with the world, through talent spotlights, exhibitions, mentorship, and post-release connections.
Each program feeds a wider set of initiatives that shift culture across the justice journey.
Structured athletics plus academic support to build discipline, teamwork, leadership, and career readiness.
Mentorship and transitional support post-incarceration, connecting returning citizens to collegiate and career pathways.
Pro-social interaction between residents and correctional staff to build mutual respect and a safer facility.
Mentorship and role models to reach young people before the justice system does.
Personal leadership and preparation for reintegration across minimum, medium, and high-security facilities.
Emotional development, vision-building, and resilience for justice-involved youth.
Proactive mentorship and skills development for high-risk individuals before incarceration.
