My name is M.J. In 2004, I was on top of the world with a successful career and a full life, but poor choices soon cost me my freedom and everything I had built.

When I was released from prison in 2019, I had no proper clothes, no transportation, no identification, and little hope.

Through Cornerstone Assistance Network’s Reentry First Stop, I was met with dignity, practical help, and encouragement that helped me rebuild my life and now allows me to help others do the same.
