 From 2011 to 2015, there were three Hunger Strikes in California State Prisons. The goal was to end long-term confinement in the Security Housing Unit (SHU). This was accomplished through an agreement among different groups of inmates.
 

 As a result, the Pelican Bay P.E.A.C.E. (Prisoners Embracing Anti-Hostility Cultural Evolution) Agreement was created, which is better known as the End of All Hostilities. 

 The Hunger Strikes and the agreements helped to bring our elders back into the general population. This also led to the growth of the Re-Entry Movement in communities across California. Many communities benefited from this movement, but the inmates, where it first started, did not see the same benefits. The Re-Entry Movement has generated billions of dollars for organizations that have forgotten where it began. 

 Since 2015, there have been no ongoing conflicts among the general prison population. Many prison yards, including entire prisons like Susanville, have closed down. This has allowed thousands of people to return to society, saving the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) millions of dollars. 

 As a group, we recognize the money saved, but we also understand what makes a difference between an inmate’s success and the likelihood of returning to prison. 

 Our organization is a new 501(c)(3) that holds diversity and equality in high regard as we strive for self-improvement among each individual while celebrating our unique differences. We find ourselves at a pivotal moment in history, having achieved an initiative that unites diverse demographics in pursuit of a singular objective: success

 Our organization is a new 501(c)(3) that holds diversity and equality in high regard as we strive for self-improvement among each individual while celebrating our unique differences. We find ourselves at a pivotal moment in history, having achieved an initiative that unites diverse demographics in pursuit of a singular objective: successful reintegration into society.  

To effectively address the specific needs critical for personal development, we have established several committees that reflect a wide range of ethnicities. These include the Executive, Administrative, and General Committees, each focusing on key areas such as mental health, substance abuse, education, employment, and housing. Each pillar is overseen by an Executive member, with support from an Administrator and a General Body, ensuring shared responsibility for the respective area of focus.  

Members of each committee collaborate closely with individuals from various ethnic backgrounds, thereby fostering unity and facilitating the development of transformative relationships.
