Baseball players Kenley Jansen and Ozzie Albies visit JICN
Baseball players Kenley Jansen Ozzie Albies visited the Caribbean Netherlands Judicial Institution (JICN). They talked to detainees to encourage them. 'Stay positive, even if it sometimes seems hopeless. You'll get out of here. It is never too late for change and forgiveness. Now is the time to choose the right path,” Kenley addressed the detainees.
Life after detention
After life in prison, it is difficult for detainees to build a new life in society. JICN therefore prepares them for their reintegration process. During detention, the JICN offers detainees the opportunity to develop themselves. This can be done through training, learning-working programs and employment. The JICN also offers structure. Both elements offer detainees a greater opportunity to build a socially acceptable existence in society. With the words of Kenley and Ozzie, JICN hopes that it will motivate them extra to prepare for his or her reintegration.
