A local organization is stepping up to those seeking a second chance. They are called @REALLIFE804 . They prepare individuals for real life situations and an opportunity for a real life and brighter future. More info on my FB page. #RealLife#secondchance#ourrva#RichmondVA
This is my friend Van. After 30 years of battling addiction and being in and out of jail, Van decided he wanted more out of life. The staff at @REALLIFE804 was able to provide Van the support he needed in order to help him believe in himself. Van got a second chance at life.
