    MATFORCE: Working Together to Reduce Substance AbuseYavapai County AZ (November 18, 2020) – The Yavapai Reentry Project, a project of MATFORCE, works with community members returning from incarceration. One of the programs the Yavapai Reentry Project (YRP) offers participants is the opportunity to be paired with a Community Coach. These coaches are trained volunteer mentors that offer the opportunity for community support, to help create hope for their future, and to restore and rebuild participants’ lives.

    Travis Heffner, a past YRP participant, completed the Community Coach program with his mentor, Joe Collins, at his side to support him through the journey.

    Brenda Buenrostro, YRP Project Coordinator, recently expressed her excitement and concern at the sudden growth of the mentoring program. “Over the years we have experienced a steady growth of participants in the Community Coach Program. And it has been an amazingly successful mentorship program. But, because of recent procedural changes at the state level participant involvement has increased exponentially. We are excited to see this amount of growth in this impactful program. But, we don’t have enough volunteer coaches to meet the new demand.”

    Be a part of making your community a better place for everyone! Become a Community Coach today through our proven successful mentoring program. Receive free training to learn needed skills for working one-on-one in helping provide referrals, emotional support and resources for formerly incarcerated individuals. No experience, prior qualifications, or education is needed. All that is needed is the desire to help!

    The Politics of Pain

     

    The Politics of Pain

    If there’s one thing nearly every living organism on this planet shares, it is the ability to feel pain. The pain of hunger. Of loneliness. Of illness. The pain of broken bones and broken bodies, broken hearts and broken homes. The pain of poverty, depression, the death of someone we love—and, eventually, the anticipation of our own death. Pain, in all its shapes and shadows, is the one certainty life gives us all. No one escapes it.
