Inmate CRENSHAW, C-58192, actively participated in the three (3) day Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP) Basic workshop, which was held on September 7-9, 2012. The AVP is an international non-sectarian group of dedicated volunteers of diverse national origins, races and religious affiliations formed by Quakers to help people develop effective ways of dealing with conflicts creatively and without violence. Its courses are only offered to voluntary participants. Each workshop consists of a 22-hour intensive program of exercises and discussions designed to develop self-esteem and self-confidence in a trusting and supportive atmosphere. The workshops teach principles of affirmation, communication, cooperation, community building and creative conflict resolution, which is essential in the exploration of the many nonviolent solutions that are possible in almost every conflict - particularly when approached with a caring attitude toward others. Mr. Crenshaw is commended for his participation.

To Whom It May Concern:

This letter is to document the academic accomplishment of Mr. Michael A. Crenshaw Sr. who successfully completed our 12-week self-study curriculum. Mr. Crenshaw submitted his academic work, which displayed significant insight into his prior mistakes. His ability to be honest and his maturity is evident in his work and we are impressed with the professionalism of his submissions. Mr. Crenshaw has the ability to completely understand the power of the positive tools as taught by GOGI and he is utilizing these tools in his daily decision-making. We are confident that if taught these tools as a young boy, the events of his life would have been vastly different.

It is obvious to our academic review committee that Mr. Crenshaw has displayed dedication to making better decisions in his life and is incorporating the GOGI tools of positive decision-making in his daily life. His academic life proved he can follow instructions, complies with all requirements, understands the importance of structure. His file also indicates an understanding of right from wrong, making positive decisions in the future, and the importance of living as a positive example for others.

Respectfully,

Coach Taylor
