It’s the season of giving thanks and Civil Survival is very excited to spotlight our very own staff for the months of November & December! Not only would we like to show our gratitude for their dedication but also share with our communities the faces of those responsible for the life-changing work we do. Our work is not possible without our passionate team. They work hard every day to support our formerly incarcerated families & individuals and thanks to them, we are one step closer to a world free from mass incarceration.
For today’s #StaffSpotlight we’re highlighting Cory (he/him), our Community Organizer as well as a proud father of two and a registered member of the Oglala tribe of the Lakota Nation!
Cory’s passion to advocate for our impacted families + individuals derives from his own lived experiences as a formerly incarcerated individual as well as his struggles faced during reintegration.
