I have come to a point in life where I value education. I have seen results in my life and I want to encourage others to succeed. I would like to be involved in an organization like you are creating, not only do you educate, you also instill hope in lives.

I've been incarcerated since the age of 17, I am now 41, and it's places like Level that give people like me hope. The guides are insightful - I have learned a lot. I read the last one four times and frequently re-read to remember what I learned. A person told me about Level, so it's only right that I tell others.

This meditation guide was very helpful! I have struggled in the past to learn "traditional" meditation techniques. This helped me to learn that there was another way. I've used this guide daily and the practice has helped me immensely with my anxieties. I have already recommended it to several people.

Level is an exceptional program that will have a significant impact on my nephew in prison. From the beginning, I felt like an integral part of the process, thanks to their inclusive approach and good communication. The Level staff is committed to helping people like me succeed along with my nephew.
