Julian Castro in Greenville, SC
Description
Democratic presidential candidate Julian Castro, the former HUD secretary, toured Soteria (a transitional home) and met with ex-offenders who live in the house as they stabilize following their release from prison. Storeria is a community development corporation that teaches former inmates life skills, provides transitional housing, finds employment for its residents and helps them readjust to society by finding steady work and affordable housing. The nonprofit also owns a woodworking shop nearby where clients in the program can learn carpentry skills and make products from reclaimed wood. The program has a 4 percent recidivism rate. Castro gave comments about the program and his thoughts on South Carolina's importance in the primary.
