Happy to Announce - MB3 is Rebuilding to be Better Than Ever

PictureJohn-Mark Hack
On behalf of the MB3 Board of Directors, I want to extend my deepest gratitude to you for your faithful and enduring support of Mission Behind Bars and Beyond (MB3).  Without you, we simply could not be where we are.  Now more than ever, we need your continued support and engagement.

As many of you are aware, MB3 was greatly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.  Our connections to prospective new clients were all but eliminated as a result of the necessary restrictions on contact with currently incarcerated individuals, and our volunteer network was substantially reduced.  The good news is that we are in the process of reestablishing both our client pipeline and our network of volunteers across Kentucky. 

Our mission continues to be to reduce recidivism in Kentucky using the evidence-based approach of forging connections with currently incarcerated individuals and surrounding them with a circle of support upon their release.  We are engaging in new partnerships with other like-minded organizations, and look forward to expanding our programming with more clients and more volunteers than we’ve ever had.  And we need your help.

We want all our supporters to know that we continue our work with higher aspirations for reaching more people than we ever have.  In the coming months, we will be working aggressively to expand our client contact and to engage former, current and new volunteers.  In order to continue and expand our important work, we need your continued support and engagement.

Please feel free to contact me personally at jmbhack@gmail.com or at 859-559-8804 to further discuss your support and involvement with MB3.  We strongly believe that circumstances are aligning that will facilitate greater success in accomplishing our mission, and we would love for you to be a part of it.


Thank you again for your past support, and I look forward to hearing from and engaging with you as we move forward.

John-Mark Hack
Board Chair on behalf of the MB3 Board of Directors

Vision

We envision a world in which returning citizens have the tools and opportunities that allow them to rejoin society as healthy, productive, and contributing members of the communities they live in.  

Mission Behind Bars and Beyond (MB3) directly addresses the causes of recidivism and seeks to reduce the rate of recidivism among returning citizens released from Kentucky correctional facilities. The program adopts a multi-layer, holistic approach that begins with the individual while incarcerated, assists with pre-release preparation, and provides support and assistance once the individual returns to the community.

Mission Behind Bars and Beyond is making a safer Kentucky, one returning citizen at a time. 

The vision is clear, the mission on-going.
