Mass Liberation

Today, we had the privilege of launching a transformative 4-week Reentry class, welcoming returning citizens as they prepare to reintegrate into society. This is our chance to empower them, embrace them, and show them love, while equipping them with the knowledge and life skills we’ve gained through our own experiences. It was particularly inspiring to see that half the class were women. This moment was a proud milestone for our entire team—coaches, managers, interns, CJL participants, and leadership team—coming together to welcome our new class with open arms.

Get ready for the event of the year! The Mass Liberation Homecoming Dance is almost here, and we can’t wait to see you there! 🕺💃 Let’s light up the dance floor and make it a joyful night to remember. See you soon!

Mass Liberation would like to honor one of its own today. It was an honor and privilege to witness my friend and brother, Joel, be resentenced and have his life sentence vacated. It was deeply moving to see the justice system at work, correcting the harsh and unjust laws that once vilified our youth. The judge’s closing words resonated with everyone in the room: “People often think that leadership is about running for president, but true leadership is about taking charge of your own life and looking inward. That means taking control of your life, and Joel, you have done that. Congratulations on being a light that shows the way.”

The 4-week reentry program aims to equip individuals with essential life skills, job readiness, career exploration, and employment placement support to facilitate successful reintegration into society and stable employment.

It’s inspiring to be part of a learning organization that gives interns a front-row seat to a nonprofit’s inner workings and includes their input in leadership decisions, fostering growth and innovation.
