Over the last decade, in a place that offers no meaningful help, Bobby has managed to not only heal, but to grow beyond belief. In an attempt to shed light on the issues of mental health, addiction, and American incarceration, we decided to share his story in real time, with honesty and humor, in the hopes of honoring those affected by these issues.
Unfortunately, even with all the work he's put in, the current system does very little to assist inmates in the way of post-prison stability. The hard truth is that when Bobby is released, he'll have nothing. No house, no car, no clothes, no food, no phone, not even the basic toiletries necessary for survival.
I created a GoFundMe page to raise money for Bobby to get back on his feet once released and help with restitution.
