- Started a scheme where the women got new clothes after they came into the jail.
- Their children and belongings were also looked after.
“If my son hadn't had access to food, he too would have turned to selling drugs to get the food. In my 20-year history I have spoken to too many young men who said “I started selling drugs because my momma couldn’t feed me and I was hungry””
- Started working at San Francisco County Jail in 1980
