Today, he is an adjunct professor, consultant, and nationally recognized speaker dedicated to criminal justice reform and second chances.
The RRCC Workforce Services Department welcomes you to this event in collaboration with the library. Coffee and bagels will be provided.

About the Book:

In this gripping memoir of transformation, David Carrillo delivers a raw, unflinching account of one man's journey against the gravitational pull of a system designed to consume him. This is not merely a prison memoir or recovery story—it’s a deeply moving exploration of what it means to protect others, to find purpose through service, and to rebuild a life worthy of the second chance so hard-won.
