A bit more about the experience

As you dive into this journey, you may find things frustrating, unfair, confusing, illogical, and stressful. You’ll also see that the path isn’t linear. There’s not always a clear way forward. You might have to bounce around and go way over there just to come back over here. That's kind of what it feels like in real life.

You may also notice that there is some dark humor here and there. We’re not making light of this. At all. We’ve lived it ourselves and know the immense suffering all too well. Sometimes we use levity to convey these tough realities. We do what we do to survive with our humanity intact. 

A word of caution: If you’re a formerly incarcerated person, please note that some have found this platform triggering and upsetting. Consider if you want to interact with this. You’ve been through enough. Take care of yourself above all else.

Testimonials

“Too real😭 I hope people who have never actually had these experiences will play this.”

“It's almost impossible to survive. I really wanted to ‘win’ and was deflated when I realized there were just too many barriers."
