Hi Philanthropist! I'm wondering if you would be interested in having an interview with my employer on the radio. Here's a bit about who we are (non-profit) Thanks so much... Getting Out By Going In, is a Los Angeles 501c3 non-profit organization that is dedicated to rehabilitating non-violent incarcerated women and men. GOGI Program teaches them to identify and ‘Get Out’ of their old behavior patterns by using productive communication tools, job training, parenting classes, money/anger management classes, and self esteem/empowerment exercises. Dr. Mara Leigh-Taylor's GOGI Program, is a 12 hour a day intensive immersion course that is currently being implemented with 24 inmates ‘students’ at a time at the Century Regional Detention Facility For Women in Lynwood, CA. The National Recidivism Rate-(the amount of re-arrests) is at 70%. GOGI Campus is pleased to report a 2% Recidivism Rate! THAT’S success. GOGI felt that our program would be of great interest to you and the LA Weekly readers, and we’d like to invite you to tour our campus and see these amazing results for yourself. Please visit our website www.gettingoutbygoingin.org – or you can google Mara Leigh-Taylor. Thank you for your consideration. Kelli Lassen Assistant Program Director (GOGI) 310-849-0819
