Suzanne has always been a great advocate since the day I met her and has always been a listening ear! She and her group do such great that she comes with not only recommendations from this side of the walls, but even when men are having issues she and her group came recommended for my husband. They are the voice of the voiceless!

Wow! Prison to Prosperity Advocacy Movement, where to start? When I think of my mentor from P2PAM my mind doesn't even register "mentor", my mind says Family. P2PAM has changed my life and continues to help me on my journey. Words couldn't begin to adequately express the love, support, and guidance that I receive from Suzanne Riley. She has never given up on me, even when I've been hard to deal with or seemed like a lost cause. When I've felt like a lost cause she helped me to see and believe otherwise. Prison to Prosperity Advocacy Movement is a voice to all the voiceless, unfortunates yelling for help. For the confused, scared, schizophrenics pacing the walkways. P2PAM makes the calls to ensure mental health is checking on them. Suzanne pries open the blind eye turned to our circumstances and drops compassion and awareness into them like Visine helping others understand. They now see our problems and obstacles not just the outbursts caused by our afflictions. Any time I am overwhelmed, angry, scared, or sad, I know I have someone to call who will empathize and help me navigate my way through positively. P3PAM is the light above the door we would have never seen or realized was open to us. Thank you to Prison to Prosperity Advocacy Movement and especially Suzanne Riley for being a beautiful part of my life.

Sincerely,
Smoot

Beyond blessed to have this opportunity to brag on how much hope I have now . Our LO’s aren’t forgotten! The number of times I’ve reached out .. ( I’ve list count ) I have ALWAYS been inundated with more information than necessary! They leave no stone unturned. Literally always ready to jump to action ! I have never , not once been ignored or forgotten. We are told once incarcerated that’s the end! Well, I’m here to tell you that’s not true. And it’s life-changing when you go from zero, with nothing to having absolute hope! So grateful! So thankful! So appreciative!

My brother became blind while incarcerated in Texas. He was not receiving the ongoing care he needed for his deteriorating health. Jessica and Suzanne were able to step in pressing the issue for him to get the care he needed. They are no longer denying his care with specialists and routine healthcare. As a family, we sleep more soundly at night. The stress taken off of our parents has given them peace. Thank you for not giving up.

Before I connected with this remarkable group, my life was defined by despair and hopelessness. I had made mistakes in the past and paid a heavy price, both personally and legally. The future seemed bleak, and I had all but given up on the possibility of redemption. But then, I discovered Prison to Prosperity, and everything began to change. For that, I am eternally grateful. What sets this advocacy group apart is not only their dedication to individuals but also their follow-through and their trustworthiness. Suzanne does nothing for accolades and praise. She gives of herself more than any other with no strings attached. She genuinely cares about us as human beings.

They didn't just see me as a number or a statistic; they saw me as a person deserving of a second chance. I extend my deepest gratitude. You have changed my life in ways that words cannot express, and I am profoundly thankful for your tireless support and unwavering commitment to justice, compassion, and the betterment of lives.

With heartfelt appreciation,

I can't express how deeply grateful I am for the incredible work of the P2PAM. They have truly changed my life in ways I never thought possible. They are not just advocates; they are agents of change. Through their tireless efforts, they have successfully raised awareness about the injustices within the system. Their commitment to making lasting, systemic changes in the criminal justice system is truly inspiring. You are a shining example of the positive impact that prison advocacy groups can have on individuals and society as a whole.

P2PAM has literally changed my life. I have been incarcerated since I was a teenager and have never felt as if someone from society has had my back. That is until P2PAM. They are committed to not only advocating for those incarcerated, but they actually care about us that are inside these fences. That care shows through their words, actions, and commitment. I give this advocacy group five stars. Thank you P2PAM for being in my corner and helping me to become a better man.

My grandson was released on 10/7/22 after over 5 years incarcerated. I simply do not know how we would have navigated this without Suzanne!! She cares deeply about our loved ones, and has been a source of inspiration to so many, including me! Her "door is always open" and she's very proactive in helping with almost any/every situation. This is what a non profit organization is all about! Thank you so much, Suzanne Riley - you're the best!

My husband has been in prison for 9 years. He was being neglected in all aspects but the health care was the most important factor when I met Suzanne. She teamed up with me to convince the prison health system to diagnose and treat my husband’s medical issues. Thank you for your ongoing efforts to advocate for our loved ones.
