Support Our Cause
Sentencing Reform
We proudly support the Second Look Act, Compassionate Release, and Geriatric Parole programs — and we encourage you to stand with us.
These initiatives recognize that people change. They provide meaningful opportunities for review and release, particularly for individuals who committed crimes at age 25 or younger and for our aging senior population who have long since aged out of crime.
It is time to move beyond excessively harsh sentences and embrace policies rooted in growth, accountability, and second chances. By supporting these reforms, we invest in fairness, rehabilitation, and safer communities.
Let’s work together to create a justice system that reflects both responsibility and redemption.
Our Values
At Second Chance Quest, we champion justice reform, alternative sentencing, and community healing. We mentor at-risk children, support second chances for offenders, and bridge gaps between prisoners and society.
Our In Prison Support Group
Founded by inmates in 2016, our 12-week Peer-Led Support Group Program is dedicated to reducing recidivism by preparing participants to become more productive during incarceration and successful upon release. Through shared lived experience and mutual support, we help individuals better understand the challenges of incarceration while developing constructive, goal-oriented approaches to serving their time.
To date, hundreds of inmates have successfully completed the program. Many have since been granted parole and are now living productive, law-abiding lives within their communities.
Alternative Sentencing
Second Chance Quest is a vehicle for alternative sentencing for nonviolent offenders. The price SCQ place on that endeavor is service in our Military or an Adult Style Bootcamp for four years. Upon completion and remaining crime-free for five years, one’s criminal records will be expunged.
Bridging The Gap
Educating the public on justice reform as it pertains to inmates, families, and communities. Preparing prisoners for a productive transition into society and preparing society for the welcoming of second chancers.
Mission and Vision
At Second Chance Quest our mission is to reduce the school to prison pipeline by empowering prisoners to lead productive lives when they leave prison by providing them with the support and resources necessary to not only impact their lives, but the lives of at-risk children and the communities to which they belong to as well.
Youth Mentoring
Our youth mentoring program allows youth to learn and grow through group interaction with business professionals and those with life experiences. Facilitated in schools, youth prisons, community centers, this 8-Week program is modeled off of our successful inmate program. Our mission is to reduce youth crime by creating positive outlets.
