The Winter 2025 issue of The Drum is here!
Articles, Stories, and Resources for the JLWOP Community
The Drum is produced by SADO’s Project Reentry, and features articles and resources for former juvenile lifers returning to the community. The Drum identifies returning citizens’ successes (e.g., getting a driving permit, making new friends, and attending classes at SADO) and struggles (getting Social Security and transportation). It also identifies a wide variety of resources for returning citizens, including financial budgeting, employment opportunities, and community tips.
This month, The Drum features a profile of Project Reentry's 2024 Justice Fellow, Andrew Calloway; reflections on the recent lame duck legislative session by Jose Burgos; an update on SADO's Supreme Court advocacy -- and much, much more!
