Right off the muscle, Paul Campiche lets me know he recognizes his affluence, whiteness, and gender as an advantage in this world. But, as Paul told me, "I need to do something more than just be privileged; I need to [help] make [a] change."

Paul Campiche is a formerly incarcerated individual with a background in connecting individuals with re-entry services, such as housing, food, education, jobs, and other services. Paul's background is in Psychology, Crisis Management, and Case Management; he has worked with homeless individuals and individuals in recovery or active drug use. 

Tune in as Paul talks with me about how his academic achievements helped him develop emotional awareness, which led him to begin thinking about what wasn't working in his life, how to realign his life, and to stay out of prison. Today, Paul is giving back to other formerly incarcerated people as a mental health care provider by helping them access services and employment.
