In this episode of 17 Winters Podcast, I sat down with longtime friend and fellow formerly incarcerated leader Nate Johnson, Co-Founder of Next Chapters Solutions.Meeting more than 20 years ago at MTU, we reflect on our journeys from incarceration and transformation to becoming leaders in Michigan’s reentry movement. They discuss Nate’s work with Fresh Coast Alliance, Reentry United, and Next Chapters Solutions, the need for stronger statewide collaboration, and why formerly incarcerated people must be trusted to lead the work of reentry.A powerful conversation about second chances, coming home, and helping others write their next chapter.
