Volunteer CJCGC Jail Outreach Coaches meet in weekly, two-hour sessions with women and men (seperate sessions) incarcerated in the Gillespie County Jail.

Our outreach empowers voluntary participants to better understand themselves and others in preparation for life after their sentences are completed. Topics covered include understanding temperament and personalities with the use of assessments. Anger management and communication curriculum are also used to practice and prepare for success after jail or if sentenced to prison.

Vocational discovery and planning is utilized to develop and inform career paths needed to achieve individual goals.

Participants also enjoy time to build community together through worship and discussion.

Finally, the value of each participant and his or her own experiences are nurtured through each writing an autobiography.
