WBEZ is the Chicago region's premier public media service. Our award-winning team covers local news and specializes in project-based reporting on issues ranging from education to criminal justice, from politics to the arts. 

You Matter is a culturally relevant, trauma-informed therapeutic support model for individuals who have served long-term prison sentences. The purpose of You Matter is to use the power of art and the humanities to address the issue of mass incarceration through meaningful conversations and intentionally curated services. Interviews were conducted with formerly incarcerated individuals in service of highlighting their varied stories of reentry, and these narratives serve as the foundation of our work. By sharing these personal stories we aim to challenge social perceptions and biases, promote equity, and inspire positive change.
