"When I entered the LCJP program, I was too broken of a person to realize how lucky I was. With a sad heart I was making mistake after mistake before I was caught breaking the law. But because of the second chance I was given, my downhill spiral of self-despair stopped short in its tracks.

The opportunity to reflect on this experience led me to reflect on all aspects of my life. I was able to see the path that led me to where I was and ways of changing my future. LCJP changed my life.

This program was everything I didn’t know I needed: someone to see the good in me when I couldn’t see any in myself. Eventually, I even started seeing good in the world again.

For this reason, I’ve created this painting to reflect the changes I’ve made in my life. Thank you for helping me turn my life around… it is true: the best view comes after the hardest climb." - LCJP Client
