Reading for life

http://www.readingforlife.us/

Reading for Life is a mentoring program for juvenile offenders (ages 13-18) that combines a study of seven virtues with young adult fiction to reduce juvenile recidivism rates. Reading for Life provides an alternative to prosecution for non-violent offenses. In small groups with trained mentors, young people learn to make better life choices by recognizing and implementing the timeless virtues of Justice, Prudence, Temperance, and Fortitude.
