Changing the World
With a budget of only $3,000, Dr. Tamara Russell launched an innovative mental health program at Washington State Penitentiary in Walla Walla, WA. Her treatment program provides inmates with opportunities to help others—by mentoring fellow inmates, tutoring students for the General Educational Development (GED) tests, and caring for orphaned kittens, among other things (Hagar, 2013, September 19).
