| Summary: | “Help unlock the second prison.” This slogan, a hallmark of the Yellow Ribbon Project, is a silent companion of the ex-offender, presenting itself at various stages of reintegration. It watches from the walls of transitional shelters, from the offices of volunteer welfare organisations and is a source of purpose for counsellors and social workers. It advertises at bus stops and on television screens, urging the public to keep an open mind and reminding ex-offenders of the difficult journey that lies ahead. It is a mark of the progress made and challenges that remain. |
