Help participate or facilitate in life-changing, experiential workshops at the Denver Women's Correctional Facility in Denver. Workshops are playful, interactive, and weave together life skills, facilitated discussions, role plays, humor and games. The workshops have demonstrated results in reducing recidivism rates, reducing write-ups in prisons, and reducing levels of anger. Training is provided and you will be working with other trained volunteers. Workshops are offered on weekends. Contact Maire at maire@avpcolorado.org.
