Right now, over two million Americans are incarcerated<\/a>. To put this into perspective, this adds up to roughly half the population of Connecticut<\/a>, double that of Rhode Island<\/a>, and nearly triple that of Wyoming<\/a>.<\/p>\n

U.S. penitentiaries house over 25% of incarcerated individuals worldwide \u2014 giving us a higher prison population than any other country<\/a>. From outside a cell, it can be easy to make blanket judgments about those serving time, regardless of how rightful their sentence may be. However, when you refrain from casting a social verdict, you’ll find a different picture emerges.<\/p>\n

Prosecuting stigma<\/h2>\n

Isolated and ostracized, most justice-involved individuals long for the comfort and support we often take for granted: community, opportunity, and companionship \u2014 all of which can seem a far cry from penitentiary walls.<\/p>\n

Upon reentry, individuals are seldom met with the support necessary to reclaim their livelihoods. Justice-involved individuals often slip through the cracks after release. Without the proper resources and guidance, it becomes easy to fall into the same traps that ensnared them in the first place. This phenomenon \u2014 referred to as recidivism<\/a> \u2014 is both pervasive and destructive. In fact, 67.8% of released individuals meet this fate<\/a> \u2014 finding themselves arrested again.<\/p>\n

For Dr. Matt Connell, MBA, combatting recidivism and eliminating social stigma defines his life\u2019s work. As the director of the ENet program at Goodwin University and University of Bridgeport, Connell defies outdated notions about incarceration \u2014 helping to provide justice-involved students not only with career-ready training but with community-wide support. \u201cThe mission of ENet is to provide an entrepreneurial education to those who’ve been justice-involved,\u201d Connell delineates. We\u2019re focused on trying to provide something that will correlate to financial freedom, career advancement, independence, and generational wealth.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While programs like ENet aren\u2019t exclusive to Goodwin or UB, Connell\u2019s approach differs from traditional programming. \u201cWe\u2019ve been one of the only programs in the state wherein students can come home during their time as a student and still continue their studies,\u201d he explains. \u201cOur last cohort had four students come home and finish their program via Zoom.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Matt Connell has seen ENet make a meaningful difference firsthand. \u201cResearch shows that students who have been incarcerated and pursue higher education are less likely to be reincarcerated in the future,” he explains. “The recidivism rate for our students is much lower than the national average.\u201d<\/p>\n

Our ENet graduates are giving back<\/h2>\n

Connell finds himself immensely inspired by the individuals whom he mentors. \u201cBesides the connections I\u2019m making with the students, I value playing a little part in providing some type of support for people,\u201d he shares. \u201cBut perhaps the thing I value most is teaching super smart individuals who are passionate and committed to their futures.\u201d<\/p>\n

One such individual is Ed Andrews. Since completing his ENet certificate in 2019, Andrews has worked tirelessly to support justice-involved individuals. In addition to creating meaningful opportunities for people to reclaim their livelihoods, Andrews is flipping the script that surrounds American incarceration \u2014 helping educate communities about the social inequities and barriers that feed the cycle of recidivism.<\/p>\n

Ed Andrews\u2019 Story<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Growing up, Edward \u201cEd\u201d L. Andrews didn\u2019t anticipate that he would one day publish a novel inspired by his own coming of age story amidst the streets of Brooklyn, New York. Having never planned to become an author, Andrews didn\u2019t put pen to paper with the intention of finding fame or notoriety. In fact, when he wrote The Reminder<\/em><\/a>, it was an exercise in solace and self-recovery. \u201cIt was a way for me to release some pain,\u201d Andrews recounts. \u201cIt was therapeutic for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now serving as an Urban Trauma Specialist for communities nationwide, Andrews found his calling in the same unlikely place where he authored his novel \u2014 from the inside of a penitentiary. While incarcerated, he conceived the idea for SCRIP<\/a>\u2014 a 501(c)(3) nonprofit officially established in 2019.<\/p>\n

SCRIP, which stands for Second Chance Reentry Initiative Program<\/a>, is based out of Hartford, Connecticut. The organization is dedicated to helping marginalized individuals overcome societal constraints and social challenges to reclaim their livelihoods and find professional success.<\/p>\n

Understanding urban trauma<\/h3>\n

To appreciate Andrews\u2019 vision for SCRIP, one must consider the impact of urban trauma \u2014 the very field of Ed\u2019s specialty. Urban trauma<\/a> is a deep-seated psychological phenomenon experienced by those residing in high-conflict communities. From poverty and food insecurity to violence and loss, hardship can be an inescapable reality<\/a>, leading to toxic stress<\/a> and emotional turmoil.<\/p>\n

The exhaustive trauma of toxic stress can trap individuals in a self-subsisting trap of fight, flight, freeze, or fawn<\/a>. Constantly reexperiencing these exacerbated emotions makes it difficult to achieve balance \u2014 suspending many individuals in a heightened state<\/a> that leads to anger, mistrust, perpetual fear, and an overwhelming sense of rejection. Trapped under the thumb of these fraught emotions, individuals struggle to achieve personal advancement and thrive. Much like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD<\/a>), urban trauma has genetic factors, too<\/a>. Routine exposure to toxic stress has the capacity to alter us on a cellular level. Consequently, our hardships can impact future generations, even if only second-hand.<\/p>\n

Urban trauma, however, tends to carry broader social implications than PTSD or toxic stress. Because urban trauma most dominantly affects individuals from historically marginalized communities, it takes its root in racism<\/a>. From the appalling practices of slavery to modern-day injustices such as mass incarceration<\/a>, Black and Brown communities have struggled for equality and inclusion \u2014 often being met by marginalization, prejudice, and bias. The pervasive effects of racism have facilitated urban trauma; those who find themselves sequestered in communities teeming with strife struggle to find equitable means to remove themselves from a merciless cycle.<\/p>\n

Addressing the reentry gap<\/h3>\n

Through personal and professional experience, Ed understands the gravity of these issues. Consequently, he\u2019s made it SCRIP\u2019s mission to provide holistic programming that not only helps negate the effects of urban trauma, but helps those experiencing it heal, find personal and professional fulfillment, and defy its vicious nature.<\/p>\n

But when Andrews first conceived of SCRIP, it wasn\u2019t only a means to address urban trauma \u2014 he also saw it as an opportunity to combat recidivism. \u201cAfter serving 22 years,\u201d he offers, \u201cI saw a big gap that was missing for people to be successful with their reentry.\u201d<\/p>\n

With a mission to defy urban trauma and recidivism, Andrews joined ENet in 2018 \u2014 choosing to focus his studies on Business Start-Ups. In addition to helping him develop the strategies necessary to start a nonprofit, he found the personal support offered by faculty to be a powerful reinforcer. \u201cENet brought us back to reality,\u201d he shares. \u201cWe\u2019d go to class in person and have intermissions in between. The professors made us feel accepted, educated us on valuable things, and gave me a lot of insight.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ed found incomparable value in the mentorship of Dr. Matt Connell, who made himself an immediate ally to his students. \u201cProfessor Connell was always there when I needed answers to questions, no matter what time of day,\u201d he reflects.<\/p>\n

Multiple means to a meaningful impact<\/h3>\n

Now five years underway, SCRIP offers a breadth of programs<\/a> to alleviate urban trauma and disrupt the snare of recidivism. These programs are products of Andrews\u2019 envisioning \u2014 each speaking volumes of his will to make a meaningful impact.<\/p>\n

One of Ed’s most successful programs is ASCEND<\/a> \u2014 the Academic, Social, Counseling, Expert-Mentoring, and Networking Development program. By providing formerly incarcerated individuals opportunities to develop personal and professional skills, ASCEND curbs the likelihood of recidivism. With the guidance of expert mentors, participants in this 8-week program learn about the causes and effects of urban trauma. Moreover, they receive personalized financial and career guidance \u2014 helping them embrace autonomy and personal responsibility. Although SCRIP makes Hartford its headquarters, the ASCEND program operates nationally \u2014 providing support to justice-involved individuals in communities coast-to-coast.<\/p>\n

Another program founded by Andrews is COPE<\/a> \u2014 the Career Opportunities and Pathways to Employment program. Like ASCEND, COPE helps justice-involved individuals find successful reentry. However, COPE\u2019s primary emphasis is on employment and career-readiness. Over the 18-week agenda, participants connect with internship opportunities, receive professional referrals, and sometimes even find job placements. Eighteen weeks doesn’t entirely mark the end, either \u2014 COPE participants benefit from lifelong access to individualized career coaching.<\/p>\n

Through SCRIP, Ed Andrews has even launched a residential program. Operating out of Manchester, CT, CARE aims to satisfy the employment and financial needs of its participants over a 4-month residency. The program enables individuals to regain financial independence by helping them establish savings accounts. Other SCRIP offerings include youth programs, urban male and female initiatives, and more.<\/p>\n

Addressing the reentry gap<\/h3>\n

Since 2019, Ed Andrews has not only found success running SCRIP but as a public speaker, too. \u201cI appear at different organizations and colleges to talk about topics related to incarceration and urban trauma,\u201d he offers.<\/p>\n

In addition to helping today’s communities recover, Andrews has his sights set on the future. He is currently pursuing a master\u2019s degree in social work \u2014 all while pushing the envelope and looking for new ways to help SCRIP build momentum. \u201cWe\u2019re planning to expand the current program offerings and provide social work internships,” he explains.<\/p>\n

And that’s not to forget his second book, which is now in the works, too.<\/p>\n
