“I am excited about the cutting-edge educational
program that CEC has developed. They have sown
together ideas from social sciences with practical
wisdom to develop and implement a program with the
potential to not only reduce recidivism but improve
lives. I think students who put time and effort into this
program will enjoy it, learn from it, and see benefits
from applying it.” !

Participants receive daily phone
calls that encourage their
progress, support their
development and habits, and
change their lives. The calls are
tailored to each individual’s
unique circumstances. The
students also receive calls from
their parents, guardians, mentors,
and CEC Life Coaches.

of Real Victo
- Participant
Reducing recidivism requires
criminals to think differently and
have support as they change. Many solutions address one or
the other element; CEC and
RealVictory have teamed up to
solve both. CEC classes teach
new life skills. The RealVictory
Phone Coach delivers support
outside the classroom. !
Short, interactive phone calls help
people stay focused, create selfaccountability, and deliver
encouraging messages from
family, friends, and CEC life
coaches. The result is long-term
positive behavior change,
documented by solid academic
research.
