2. Dear Friend,
What draws you to the field
of corrections? Perhaps you
know a neighbor, friend, or
family member that spent
time in a local jail or prison.
Maybe, you are a correctional
professional, or student.
After you read these pages
and visit the webpage,
www.kagl.info , you will want
to know how to bring
freedom to communities
when offenders return home.

3. We invite you to join in
revitalizing communities 13!
We have friends that proclaim
true freedom for offenders that
are released from American
prisons (jails) who have face
high return-to-custody rates as
high as 80%. Eight of ten
offenders will fail parole within
12 to 36 months of release
from the facility.
We have taken a deeper look
into corrections’ performance
and through an Eleuthera lens.

4. I Never Want to take freedom for Granted!
How can Eleuthera help offenders? In part, it is a framework
for those with a stake in our community. The principles
offered in the Chains of Eleuthera Model have been
confirmed through experiences; the author has seen first-
hand improvements in criminals incarcerated, and
subsequently reintegrated back into society. You may not
realize that by joining the Eleuthera Movement, we can truly
work toward freedom in corrections and revitalize our
community. But, why do we want to change corrections? One
exon proclaimed gratitude at being released from prison and
with literacy, work and family skills to remain a social asset.

5. Chains of Eleuthera Is Born
A few years ago we noted the failures of the American
correctional system. We were curious that a multibillion
dollar prison-industrial complex that requires
corrections officers, wardens, ancillary staff as well as
managers supervising public-private partnerships for
food, work and education services, faced challenges
operating efficiently.
Without realizing it, our thoughts on corrections’
performance jotted down on napkins and note pads
were translated into our perspective of penal systems.
We can say that the conceptualization of Eleuthera is
guided by the “what works” evidence that the
Canadians, notably Dr. Paul Gendreau, had shared
decades ago.
