One significant change I would advocate for in our supervision system is a shift towards a more rehabilitative and supportive approach. Rather than focusing solely on surveillance and punishment, I believe our supervision system should prioritize rehabilitation, providing individuals with the resources and support they need to successfully reintegrate into society. By investing in rehabilitation and support services, we can help individuals address these root causes and reduce the likelihood of reoffending. Additionally, I would advocate for greater flexibility and individualized approaches within the supervision system. Recognizing that each person's circumstances and needs are unique, supervision plans should be tailored to the individual, taking into account factors such as family support, employment opportunities, and access to community resources. Overall, by shifting towards a more rehabilitative and individualized approach, our supervision system has the potential to not only improve outcomes for individuals under supervision but also enhance public safety and promote long-term community well-being.

Tomorrow is GIVING TUESDAY! Two Nonprofits Making a Difference in San Antonio: Why You Should Support Them San Antonio is home to some truly incredible organizations that are changing lives and strengthening our community. Today, I want to highlight two nonprofits that are doing outstanding work: Reaching Maximum Independence (RMI) and Life Skills for Living. 🌟 Reaching Maximum Independence, Inc (RMI): Empowering Individuals with Disabilities RMI is dedicated to helping individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities live their lives to the fullest. They provide essential services such as residential programs, vocational training, and day habilitation services, giving individuals the skills, support, and opportunities they need to thrive independently. Why Donate to RMI? • Your support helps provide critical resources for housing, employment training, and community integration. • Every dollar helps someone gain independence, find purpose, and live with dignity. 🌟 Life Skills for Living: Building Resilience and Emotional Wellness Life Skills for Living focuses on mental health and emotional well-being, offering affordable counseling, workshops, and life coaching to individuals and families in need. Their mission is to equip people with the tools to overcome life’s challenges and achieve personal growth. Why Donate to Life Skills for Living? • Your contributions help provide counseling for those who cannot afford it, ensuring no one faces emotional struggles alone. • Supporting mental health leads to healthier, more connected families and communities. ❤️ How You Can Help By donating to these organizations, you’re not just giving money—you’re giving hope, empowerment, and opportunities to people who need them most. Whether you can give $5 or $50, every bit makes a difference! Visit their websites to learn more and make a donation today: • www.rmihomes.org • https://lnkd.in/gMfMEcU6 Let’s come together to support these amazing nonprofits and continue making San Antonio a stronger, more inclusive community! #SanAntonioNonprofits #SupportLocal #GiveBack #ReachingMaximumIndependence #LifeSkillsForLiving

The Dsquared Homes for the Homeless GAP program assisted our 100th client with rent today! I'm extremely proud of this initiative, which came about from my son being denied temporary housing over a $40 income shortage I wasn't allowed to cover. He lived in Kiwanis Park for one year, and though I fought hard, he never received help. My motto is, "Don't TALK about it, BE about it' because it's more normal to complain about what someone else ISN'T doing (especially the government) than it is to look at ourselves and figure out how WE can make a difference. I founded this nonprofit to assist those experiencing a temporary setback with rent, and it's exactly what we've done without help from the government. I don't believe in excuses, and complaining about what the government wasn't doing, certainly wasn't helping my son when he lived in the park. Dsquared Homes for the Homeless is recruiting an Administrative Assistant (we always need a Fundraising Director) whose role will include representing Dsquared in Zoom meetings with our community partners. My preference for the Admin Position is someone who is retired or only works part-time because they will have the flexibility required for this role. Although we do not have monthly meetings (most of us work while volunteering with Dsquared), we are known well enough that businesses reach out to support our mission through their organizations regularly. This volunteer MUST be a self-starter but does NOT need to live in Arizona as the entire role is supporting us with Admin duties, and representing us on Zoom calls. Who do you know that wants to make an immediate impact in the community, and has a passion for underserved populations?

At Project Protect Our Children, we believe that youth can become champions in the fight to end human trafficking when given the right opportunities. That’s why we created the Youth Action Board Program—to ENGAGE, EDUCATE, and EMPOWER passionate middle and high school students. Conceptualized in 2019 and launched in 2020, this unparalleled groundbreaking program empowers students to create and lead impactful anti-human trafficking campaigns, events, and activities, reaching their peers in ways only they can. Our Youth Action Board Community of Practice platform offers everything needed to start and sustain a student-led anti-human trafficking club at your school or community—free of charge, including a stipend for a school campus sponsor. Together, Youth Action Board members collaborate to develop innovative events and activities that not only raise awareness about human trafficking but also fill critical gaps and make a significant, tangible impact. This diverse group of students brings together different perspectives, experiences, and cultural backgrounds, united by the goal of ending human trafficking. At Project Protect Our Children, we firmly believe in the power and potential of youth to lead in this crucial fight! Join us in empowering the next generation of leaders to make a lasting difference. Help us grow the youth-driven anti-trafficking movement in your area!

Real change starts at the local level. Hyperlocal giving allows us to invest directly in community-led initiatives that address racial equity and the systemic challenges many neighborhoods face. By supporting organizations rooted in the communities they serve, we empower those who are closest to the issues and equipped with the knowledge to drive sustainable solutions. These hyperlocal efforts are essential to addressing disparities in economic opportunities and justice—particularly in areas heavily impacted by mass incarceration. By focusing on specific community needs, we can create pathways to equity and long-term change. Visit the PWF Grants page to learn more about our nonprofit partners. Explore their work, visit their websites, and consider giving directly to support their efforts in building stronger, more equitable communities. https://lnkd.in/g5eZnehv #HyperlocalGiving

When businesses and society maintain closed minds towards justice-impacted individuals, the consequences are profound and far-reaching. The reluctance to offer second chances or opportunities to those with criminal backgrounds perpetuates a cycle of disadvantage and exclusion. To address these consequences, it is crucial for businesses and society to adopt more inclusive practices and open-minded attitudes. Providing fair opportunities for employment, housing, and education, and actively working to dismantle stigmas associated with criminal records, can help justice-impacted individuals reintegrate successfully and contribute positively to their communities.
