Beverly Locke, Motivational Speaker and Administrative Assistant

When I joined Straight Talk, I wondered what I had to offer to anyone, since I was an ex-con and a recovering drug addict. Then I began to speak out. I realized that this Program was one where I could use all of my negative experiences to help the kids know how “not fun” the end result of committing crimes could be.


I also came to realize that through talking to the kids, it gave my life purpose and I began to heal and forgive myself. I became whole again and was able to grow emotionally, which allowed me to develop a renewed sense of purpose.

 

Without Straight Talk, I would still be sulking and ashamed and never moved from living in self pity to being a proud citizen of my community!!! I learned that I am valuable.

Some of the Straight Talk Program participants are formerly incarcerated people and those that have had contact with law enforcement. Others have not had any contact with law enforcement or the criminal justice system. What brings them together is a shared passion to help others in the community with the gifts God has given them.
