The devastating fires have taken numerous lives, destroyed homes, properties, forced evacuations and displaced thousands of residents.\u003Cbr>In solidarity with the people of Hawaii, ROOTS and the Native Hawaiian Religious Group at San Quentin are holding a month-long fundraiser and hygiene drive to assist the victims of the fires.\u003Cbr>Those who wish to donate can contribute new, unopened hygiene items, or submit a trust account withdrawal slip (minimum $5 donation) to the Trust Office.\u003Cbr>Hygiene donations will be collected in the housing units by incarcerated volunteers from ROOTS and the Native Hawaiian Religious Group on Fridays. All donations will be final on October 27.\u003Cbr>Thankyou foryour support and contributions! | BRINGING THE OUTSIDE IN\u003Cbr>n July 28, San Quentin’S Garden\u003Cbr>OCnaipceeercgamey asa ffioncaall popreintpatiens\u003Cbr>were made to honor more than 100 graduates of Robert E.

A first-time visitor, Wallace looked overwhelmed as she crossed through the massive iron threshold and took in the Garden Chapel and Peace Officer’s Memorial. Spotting Lardizabal waiting expectantly in the courtyard, she hurried toward him with her arms thrown open wide and her eyes already wet.\u003Cbr>“Am I allowed to hug you?” she cried. After a quick embrace, they separated and Wallace offered a sweeping gesture at the garden setting.“This is beautiful …Wow.”\u003Cbr>Wallace had just been through an exasperating, tear-inducing dress-code issue that nearly kept her from entering the prison, but she was determined not to miss this for the world. In recovery herself, she knows the power of change and personal transformation.\u003Cbr>“I don’t think I’ve ever been so moved in my life,” she told SQNews later.“I’m so proud of my friend, Scott, and everyone who is graduating today. They didn’t come here on a winning streak, but they’re changing their lives.”\u003Cbr>PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE\u003Cbr>In 2019, CDCR’s Office of Correctional Education created its Distinguished School Award.
