Closing Thoughts-

Ash “Hackers” and “Makers” we often take great pride in finding new uses for existing things. This program uses inmates to rehabilitate dogs which would otherwise be euthanized.
What an amazing use of resources. Inmates have virtually 24/7 underutilized time. This gives them a fantastic purpose- saving an otherwise doomed animal. Who knows, it may benefit the
inmates more than we could ever measure. Truly making a difference in many lives. Inspiring!
