One area of focus for CPO is helping to curb the violence throughout our undeserved communities and providing ways for troubled youth and young adults to supplement their reckless behaviors. Often times, our messages are better received when one is at their lowest moment in life. In going into federal and county prisons we understand first hand the troubles they are dealing with. The inmates can detect instantly that our team is there to provide real life guidance on how to change their lives around. With high recommendations from prison admins and success stories from many inmates, our mission is to create an army of reformed beings, who can have a positive impact on their communities when they return home.
Are you interested in hosting a speaking engagement at your facility for youth and/or young adults?
Victor Woods and Asa Powell met in Federal Prison and became friends. Victor always saw greatness within Asa and repeatedly encouraged him to change his life around. They are living proof on what can come from never giving up, no matter the circumstances.
Today, Victor and Asa travel throughout the United States speaking to inmates and sharing their stories.
Their message is to NEVER GIVE UP.
