Coming home after incarceration is hard.

Having someone in your corner who’s been there makes a real difference. That’s what forensic peer mentors do. And last week, two of them came to visit us. We welcomed Ladji Ruffin, Forensic Peer Mentor Liaison with the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities, and Al DePratt, the new Forensic Peer Mentor at Charles D. Hudson Transitional Center in LaGrange. They toured our space, learned about the support we offer, and spent time getting to know our team. When the people helping someone come home know each other, that person is less likely to fall through the cracks. Thank you, Ladji and Al. We’re glad to be working together. #CowetaFORCE #FORTroup #CowetaRecovers #GARecovers #RecoveryIsPossible #RecoveryCommunity #peersupport #communitiesrecover #RecoveryisReal
