    It is truly wonderful to see the kind of change that Criminon has made for this person. It would be ideal to have the Criminon program in every prison so that every criminal could actually be reformed.

    WOW, That poem certainly shows some amazing results. It certainly beats the pants off of people just "doing time" and psychiatric treatment which statistics always show only make better criminals instead of rehabilitated ones. Great work Criminon!

    What an incredible poem and I feel truly humbled to see such joy of living and hope. If this is what your program offers, more power to it! Keep doing the good work!!!!

    That is a very moving poem. The Criminon program has rehabilitated many and this inmate speaks for all of them in his poem.

    I am very moved by the poem Life in Pink. It gave me such a good reality on the Criminon program. Wow. Just wow.

    What a wonder success! This just reaffirms what I do every day as a Criminon Supervisor in the USA. I know we are changing lives and salvaging beings from a life of criminality and drugs.

    I have read this poem several times by now, and it still moves me. This is just one out of many success stories we received from the prisoners. They speak of hope, of a newly found future, of being able to dream again, of believing again that one is human.
    Thank you for joining the cause. By doing so, you are helping us to rebuild a country!

    This is awesome, very good to know that people are actually getting helped and are improving! I think that there should be an encouragement to other prisoners to also share their gains from the crimonon program!

    It is great to see how a person is truly getting rehabilitated and getting back their self respect, being able to have and create a future again.

    Now I know why I continue what I do. It is acknowledgments like these that make it all worthwhile.
