You are invited to hear John Sheehan, social worker and head of our

community can help people adjust to leaving prison through our meal
programs and beyond.

University with advanced training from NYU. He has extensive experience
working with substance abusers, people with AIDS and the Homeless. A focus
of his clinical work has been on the Criminal Justice System, including
