Bio:
Amy founded Turn90 (formerly Turning Leaf) in 2011 as a volunteer. The organization now has 13 salaried staff and provides transitional employment to over 100 men a year. Their second location was launched in Columbia in October and announced the organization's rebranding as Turn90. Working with men returning home from prison who are at the highest risk of re-arrest, Turn90 combines cognitive behavioral classes, wraparound support, onsite transitional employment, and job placement to offer a proven model of prison reentry with a 78% success rate. Amy's stated aim is to build the first evidence-based nation-wide re-entry program. Amy earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Law, Societies & Justice at the University of Washington and is working towards her Master's in Criminal Justice at Arizona State.
