This session shares a powerful, trauma-informed initiative to host a screening of a film telling the real-life story of Cassy, who, at just 18, tried meth—a choice that led to addiction, estrangement, and incarceration. However, through love, therapy, and unwavering resolve, she found recovery and a new way of life. The film is a vehicle for empathy, reflection, and empowerment — showing that transformation is not only possible, but accessible.

This screening is designed to unite educators, program coordinators, and leaders working within correctional spaces by including a facilitated Q&A and feedback session to gauge the documentary's impact and gather insights to inform future programming aimed at empowering the families, support systems, and broader “village” of individuals in custody, under supervision, and recovering from addiction.
