Description

On this episode of Did Y'all Hear?, we're going behind bars at the Cabarrus County Detention Center to explore an inspiring collaboration among the Cabarrus County Sheriff’s Office, the Cabarrus County Library System and a dedicated group of volunteers.

Together, they're staging a literacy program that transforms some inmates, providing them with the hope and skills they need to reintegrate into society.  

As Inmate Program Coordinator Charlotte Windley says: "They just need that one little light to let them know somebody cares."
