Episode Synopsis

Bruce Willis, the Actor, has a quote, 'You Can't Undo The Past, But You Can Certainly Not Repeat It'.  Many people residing behind the wall have experienced disciplinary issues in the past.  A mindfulness program developed at the Hampden County Sheriff's Office, by program manager Dan Cavanaugh, in 2019, is experiencing dramatic results for those participants who are currently incarcerated.  The program, aptly named, S.A.V.R., Stress, Anger, Violence Reduction, not only teaches meditation and mindful behavior but addresses topics like anger management, cognitive-behavioral therapy skills, parenting, and domestic violence.
