Ex-con Helps Reduce Fights in RI Prison

The Providence Journal recently profiled Salomao Monteiro, who works for the Institute for the Study and Practice of Non-Violence and who has been working in the Maximum Security Unit of Rhode Island’s Adult Correctional Institutions. Mr. Monteiro is part of a program working to decrease the fighting in this unit (much of which has involved the same group of men under age 25).
