This week we sit down with Louis L. Reed. Louis and his story are remarkable, as is the work he does currently as Sr. Director of Membership &amp; Partnerships at Reform Alliance. In this episode, Louis and I discuss the significant childhood trauma he faced, that led to his involvement in criminal activity and ultimately to his arrest and incarceration. We talk about the importance of education and mentorship on his journey to re-entry and the successful career he has built rebuilding the broken systems that he himself experienced.
