ACHF Arts Access
In 2016-2017, 48 people attended three separate creative writing narrative classes by 2 different artists. Participant surveys showed that 100 % of offenders participating in the writing narrative indicated an increase in the ability to express themselves which results in a higher level of self-esteem. The Washington County Jail will record the number of offenders participating in the three narrative sessions in 2017-2018. COMPAS will provide pre and post survey evaluations to all offenders participating in the creative writing narrative classes.
52 female inmates attended the the course taught by 2 different artists. When reading the post - evaluations by the women participants virtually every one of the 52 women indicated that they would definitely recommend this program to others, this evident through the inmate requests i receive on a daily basis inquiring when the program will be offered again.
