"Over the last year we have been working with the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to expand their peer caregiver model and develop a group of highly trained peer support paraprofessionals who can support not only those aging and dying inside prison walls but who, upon completion of their rehabilitative process, will be able to return to the community with a skillset that is useful, needed, and provides a living wage essential for successful reentry."
