– Randy Walker, president of CORE, a partner of Alabama Department of Corrections (ADOC)

"This essential program helps Indiana's incarcerated find their purpose through creative writing and allows a space for healing. It's become important for successful reintegration into society."
– Rob Carter, former commissioner, Indiana Department of Correction (IDOC), retired sheriff

"After returning home from Vietnam, I started drinking heavily. I had never received counseling so Indiana Prison Writers Workshop became my therapy.” – Life sentence participant
