Please keep me in your prayers for a smooth transition back into society.

Being here at San Quentin has given me a different experience than any other prison I’ve been in. Unfortunately, this is my second time incarcerated, but being here at the ‘Q’ has truly helped me become a better person. I now have a better outlook on life and a deeper understanding of myself. My release will be in just a few months. Once released, I plan to live a life of prosperity and love. I’ve included pictures of myself and my beautiful daughter—one obviously from before my incarceration. Please keep me in your prayers for a smooth transition back into society.

These stories arrive by mail.

Every month, a physical envelope arrives at your door, postmarked from San Quentin Village, California. Inside, you will find original artwork, writing, and recipes from real contributors, along with a personal letter from me, Diane Kahn, founder of Humans of San Quentin, about the people who made them. You read it. You keep it.

Every piece comes from someone serving a sentence. Every piece reminds you they are so much more than that.
