Thank you for offering these guides to us in prison. There are many of us who wish to change our lives, to grow, to learn and redeem through knowledge and hard work. I'm very happy to find this program, as the opportunities for growth are here.

Testimonials for this guide:
- Chase, incarcerated in California
I'm in a single man cell 24 hours a day, seven days a week - indefinite solitary confinement until I go home. Currently I'm Florida's one, only and worst super-max prison in the state. They provide us zero educational assistance. But through Level and its guides, I've begun a journey of meeting educational goals.
- Jason, in prison in Florida
I cannot thank Level enough for these guides and the knowledge that they contain. All of you all there at Level have given me the opportunity to show the initiative that I am putting into my rehabilitative efforts with each one of these certificates. So, from the four corners of my heart... I say thank you.
