    115. Juvenile Justice Awareness Month: Real Talk
    2025/10/14
    October is Juvenile Justice Awareness Month, and in this episode Amy sits down with some of her young people inside a juvenile prison to simply listen. They share what life is really like behind the walls, what they wish people on the outside understood about them, and the hopes they’re still holding onto for their future. These conversations are honest, vulnerable, and at times heartbreaking but they’re also filled with courage and wisdom that challenge us to see beyond labels. The young men remind us that they are more than their worst mistake, that they still dream, and that they still matter. This is their story, in their own words. Learn more about your ad choices.
