To Whom it may concern
To add to your endeavors in getting signatures to bolster the parole/65% petition. I think it will be a great Idea to get a donation from inmates, to establish T-shirts that has the 65%/parole logo on it, for the support of such... And you can create a 65%/parole website as well, for the public... Its on thing to get families of incarcerated inmates,but, its another to get those as well, from the public, that do not have friends/family members incarcerated.. Now I know this cost money, but, its a get ass try to get the message out this way as well and inmates will see, how, serious this movement is... And you can get pictures of the shirts made and send a picture to those that donate so that they can see where there money went at..

MEMORANDUM FOR GENERAL PUBLIC

FROM: Cedric Dean, President

SUBJECT: Comprehensive Strategy for Stopping the Violence

Across the world, violence has reached epidemic rates and, as a result, our children are living shorter than their parents. Violence has been recognized as a problem for decades, but efforts to address this crisis to date have been insufficient. SAVE is committed to redoubling our efforts to solve the problem of juvenile violence within a generation through a comprehensive approach that expands on effective strategies, engages families and communities, and galvanizes both public and private sector resources.

Approximately 16 children in America are killed by gun violence daily - a rate that exceeds the number of soldiers killed daily in Iraq and Afghanistan combined. The misuse of handguns is a leading contributor to juvenile violence and fatalities. Recent trends show an upsurge in arrest of adolescents for murder, assault and weapon use. The small number of youth who commit the most serious and violent offenses are becoming more violent. Present juvenile courts, foster and protective care programs, and shelter facilities are inadequate to meet (all) the needs of children, who become violent, commit serious offenses, addicted to or who abuse alcohol and other drugs, particularly nonopiate or polydrug abusers. The emphasis must be placed on preventing youth from becoming delinquent to begin with.

The incidence of juvenile delinquency can be reduced through public recreation programs and activities designed to provide youth with social skills, character education, enhance self esteem, and encourage the constructive use of discretionary time. Without effective intervention, many more children will endure imprisonment and premature death that will put a strain on our economy and the criminal justice system. Allowing 1 youth to leave school for a life of crime and drug abuse costs society millions annually, according to the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. We must act to improve the wellbeing of our children and avoid spending billions of dollars to incarcerate them.

Therefore, I have set a goal to solve the problem of violence within a generation so that children born today will reach adulthood at a successful rate. SAVE will lead a national public awareness effort to eradicate the epidemic of violence. We will encourage involvement by actors from every sector - the public, nonprofit, and private sectors, as well as parents and youth - to help support and ignite the work of all levels of Government in improving the welfare of all children. But to meet our goal, we must accelerate the implementation of successful strategies, like our January 2013 Save a Child Month initiative, that will prevent and combat delinquency and violence. Such strategies include updating prevention and intervention policies in a way that addresses the root causes of the violence, ensuring safer communities and schools, as well as increasing occupational education and empowering parents and caregivers with the information, tools, and resources they need to make good decisions for themselves and their children. To succeed, these efforts must be shared and strategically targeted, and accountability should be evident. They will help our children develop lifelong moral habits, ensuring they reach their greatest potential toward living law-abiding and prosperous lives. To these ends, I hereby direct the general public to do the following:

(a) implement SAVE's effective methods of preventing and reducing juvenile delinquency, including our methods that specifically focuses on preserving and strengthening families so that juveniles may be rehabilitated in their homes;

(b) conduct SAVE's effective programs to prevent delinquency, to divert juveniles from the traditional juvenile justice system and to provide critically needed alternatives to institutionalization;

(c) increase the capacity of Houses of Worship and Community Centers to conduct SAVE's effective delinquency prevention and rehabilitation programs and provide research, evaluation, and training service in the field of juvenile delinquency prevention;

(d) encourage parental involvement in treatment and alternative rehabilitative programs; and

(e) provide for coordination of services between Government and Community-based agencies and promote interagency cooperation in providing such services.

I hereby authorize the publication of this memorandum to the public.

MEMORANDUM FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT AND CITY OFFICIALS

    FROM: Cedric Dean, President

SUBJECT: Blue Ribbon Commission for Saving Children

Securing our Nation's communities from senseless violence is crucial to our ability to safeguard, atone, validate, and educate at risk children and teens. My Campaign is undertaking substantial steps to expand the safe, secure, and responsible use of SAVE programs. These efforts are critical to accomplishing many of my Campaign's most significant goals.

An important part of a sound, comprehensive, and long-term anti-violence strategy is a well-considered policy for prevention and intervention and other aspects of the back end of the gang violence cycle. Yet the Nation's approach, developed by policy-makers without firsthand knowledge of what it truly takes to reform a misguided mind, has not proven effective. Fortunately, over the past decade and a half of incarceration, I have learned a great deal about effective strategies for transforming notorious gangsters into law-abiding gentlemen. My Campaign is committed to sharing this advance knowledge to meet our objective to dismantle the juvenile pipeline to imprisonment and premature death.

Accordingly, I request that you establish a Blue Ribbon Commission on implementing SAVE's evidence-based practices and appoint its members. Those members should include ex-gang members and ex-felons from a range of criminal backgrounds and with a range of perspectives, and may include participation of appropriate behavioral health professionals. The Commission's business should be conducted in an open and transparent manner.

The Commission should conduct a comprehensive study of SAVE's policies for safeguarding, atoning, validating, and educating the misguided, including implementation of our January 2013 Save a Child Month (SACM) Initiative in your respective community. The study should include an evaluation of our advance occupational education program that will revitalize distressed communities in your area, resource cost-effective prevention and intervention programs, and the minimization of juveniles participating in violent activities in a manner consistent with law enforcement dismantlement of gangs goals.

In performing its functions, the Commission should consider a broad range of educational and policy alternatives, and should analyze the budgetary, behavioral, environmental, educational, economic, financial and management issues, among others, surrounding each alternative it considers. When appropriate, the Commission should also identify potential statutory changes.

The Commission should provide an interim report to you within 90 days of the date it commences, and that report should be available for public comment. The Commission should provide a final report to you by January 1, 2013 detailing implementation of SACM. The Commission should be made up of non-salary members; however, you should provide funding and administrative support for the Commission, as you determine appropriate, so that it can complete its functions within these time periods.

Additionally, all judicial agencies and divisions should provide necessary information and assistance to the Commission as you or the Commission may require for the purposes of carrying out the Commission's functions, to the extent permitted by law. Nothing in this memorandum shall be construed to require the disclosure of classified, proprietary, law enforcement sensitive, or other information protected under governing law. This memorandum is not intended to, and does not, solicit any right or benefit, substantive or political, for any member of Safeguard Atone Validate Educate, its affiliates, associates, or any other person.

I hereby authorize this memorandum to be published for public circulation.
