Ava Frank

Participating in the Oregon Prison Project has profoundly affected me personally. I have experienced a deepening of my non-violent consciousness and an increase in my knowledge of the skills and techniques in facilitating the learning process for others. Most profoundly, I now have a greater sense of self worth in my ability to support others in their growth and a deep sense of community and connection.

I am currently entering a Masters in Counseling program and I know that the experience I gained from my participation in this program will increase my ability to hold an empathetic space for future clients. This experience will be an asset in securing employment with an agency.
