FreeWorld is part of a movement to end mass incarceration and the criminalization of poverty. We support returning citizens to get and maintain living-wage jobs as truck drivers. I lead our program teams, which include incredible educators, coaches, and counselors who support our students through our program. We refer to our students as "Free Agents" in order to celebrate their freedom and agency, and everything we do is in service of them.
