We Believe: A Conversation with Don Williams

The U.S. has one of the highest incarceration rates in the world with approximately 1.9 million people in federal and state prisons and local jails. 95% of those incarcerated today will be released but 70% are likely to return to the system. However, for participants in Jumpstart, an innovative organization in South Carolina, the recidivism rate is just 4%. Today, we speak with Don Williams, one of Jumpstart’s founders, about his journey from incarceration to freedom, the work they do to help others to rebuild their lives, and their plan to make this path available to others.
