Can violent offenders really learn to make things right?

1998

Arrested for assault, battery and hate crimes

"For years I was a skinhead, fought in gang wars, and preyed upon Jews, blacks, gays, and Mexicans..

I hated myself. I hated the world."

Violence is learned. It can be unlearned.

2002

Violence prevention advocate and public speaker

"I have learned to be accountable, stop my violence, and be a contributing member of my community. Being a speaker at Temple Sinai is part of the restoration process for me and those I've harmed."

-- Aaron, former RSVP Facilitator
