2024 REX FOUNDATION GRANTEE

I Got a Friend Somewhere strives to provide connection and support to Inmates. Every month they send out a newsletter that provides connection to the outside world and has information on cognitive behavioral training to correct negative thought patterns, because to change actions you must first change your thought process.These inmates are isolated and lonely, surrounded by negativity, and most of them struggle with addiction. Many of them have burned bridges to their families and support systems while in active addiction and have no positive role models. At this rock bottom place in their lives, they are usually very receptive to change when given the tools to better themselves.Because many inmates enjoy the newsletter, I Got A Friend Somewhere encourages sharing within the prison and passing the letter along. While saving money, this also fosters the hope that they might be able to connect with others from within the prison and spark meaningful conversations.
