Responsibility means different things to different people. Our five workbooks are designed to reach different audiences in a personal way. Each of the five workbooks uses the 26 letters of the alphabet to prompt reflection on different aspects of personal responsibility. Interactive in nature, the workbooks allow individual users to select “responsibility words” that reflect their perspectives and life experiences. Easy to use and thought provoking, the workbooks can serve as private journals, as well as platforms for group exercises and discussions. User response and participation is the goal. The workbooks are the first step in building a multifaceted organization designed to promote personal responsibility in decision-making.
  
Prison Inmate Version - Recidivism is a huge national problem. Inmates being released from custody face daunting challenges. This version of the I Am Responsible workbook takes a closer look at some of these challenges and provides an opportunity for inmates to consider personal responsibility as they make decisions. The goal is to give them a chance to stay out of prison and to participate as productive members of society.
