Borrowed details to pass around for ex-offenders in Texas

I'm a little busy with work and emotional stuff at the moment, but I've just read something on another blog The Prison Wife which I would like to share with folks who also read mine. I don't usually get involved with religious programmes, but anything that can help ex-offenders get a job and get their lives back on track has to be good, yes?
