Families change the moment they receive the call. The NIA is working for you.
Meet Nolan Boatright
The families that come to the NIA for help end up becoming leaders. The Boatright family is an example of how we can empower positive change and growth.
Nolan's wife Michelle is an NIA leader and gives back to her community tirelessly. Their young daughter Victoria is becoming a spokesperson for children of the incarcerated.
"Hey Kate, I heard you all went to the Capital and Tori (his young daughter) spoke about prison reform. I Thank you for making that happen for her. I don't know if she would ever get a chance to speak somewhere like that. Every time I read what she said it makes me cry because I know it's going to be that little girl that brings me home!
Thank you so much for fighting the fight. When I do get my chance to come home I will be a model for the NIA because I will do the right things and succeed. There's no question about that. God knows I can't wait to be part of the movement showing what some of the prisoners really are.
Well, take care of yourself and don't let nothing hold you back. You are a huge help and a hero to me.
Much love, Nolan :-)"
