“I was in a bad spot when I was released after decades of incarceration. I did not know how to use a cellphone or computer or where to go to for help. PATH volunteers walked me through getting my ID card and vital records, provided me with clothes and job interview assistance, and they continue to mentor me in this new journey. I would’ve been in the streets or back in prison if it wasn’t for their help and mentorship.”
