Join REFORM Alliance's Speaker Series on August 19th for a live conversation with Jesse Crosson, founder of the Second Chancer Foundation, author of The Best Part of Prison, and a leading advocate for second chances.

After spending nearly 20 years incarcerated in Virginia, Jesse has dedicated his life to helping people successfully return home. Through his honest storytelling on social media and his work with the Second Chancer Foundation, he brings compassion, candor, and hope to conversations about incarceration and reentry, giving millions a deeper understanding of what it truly takes to rebuild a life after prison.

Together, we'll explore:

• What successful reentry actually requires
• The biggest gaps in support during and after incarceration
• What direct service organizations are seeing on the ground
• Why lived experience should help shape criminal justice policy

The REFORM Alliance Speaker Series brings together leaders advancing criminal justice reform through policy, advocacy, innovation, and lived experience.
