Our Team

PREPARE developed out of Second Chance for Women, which was founded by Maryjoel Davis.  It was relaunched as PREPARE in June 2021.  An individual’s journey towards release and a successful reentry is necessarily a collaborative process. The work of PREPARE therefore engages many different people:
