Thank you for giving me this opportunity and giving me a chance to learn more about my options and what I may do when I become a part of society once more. Level is life changing. This guide is written in a way that not only captured my attention but also made me excited to learn more. I tell everyone about Level.

I thank you for caring. I'm currently in court seeking resentencing under the youthful offender act. I've been in prison for 22+ years, since I was 20. I am going to be a success story when released. The single worst moment of my life will not be what determines who I am nor how I live my life moving forward.

While other organizations tell us to hook up with them when we get out, Level is actually doing something for us while we're stuck here. Educational opportunities are in short supply. I've been in prison 21 years, since I was 17. I can't thank you enough. Level has done more for me than other so-called advocates.

I have been incarcerated for over 29 years. This computer science guide has helped me gain a better understanding to the type of world I'm about to enter. I knew nothing about computer science or technology, except for what little I have been exposed to or told about. This guide was enlightening. Thank you!
