Larry Turner, founder and president of the Fresh Out community re-entry program, alluded to the state’s racist, exclusionary history and argued communities of color continue to be barred from making decisions for themselves about their own communities. Fresh Out has operated with a 98% Success Rate.
“Prior to us receiving access to care funds via ballot Measure 110, we were able to serve maybe only 100 individuals each year,” Turner said. “Since then, and up until this date, we’ve served over 650 African American individuals. Out of those 650 individuals, only four have returned to jail or prison.”
