The 20/10 Program

About this episode

This episode discusses the 20/10 mentorship program aimed at guiding justice-involved youth in Clarksville towards a brighter future.

This episode highlights the 20/10 mentorship program, a community-driven initiative in Clarksville, Montgomery County, designed to guide justice-involved youth toward a brighter future. Judge Ken Goble, Kimberly Wiggins and Edward Moss explain how the program provides juveniles with college-student mentors to help them visualize a life beyond the legal system. By offering exposure to higher education and vocational trades, the project aims to break cycles of generational incarceration and replace punishment with rehabilitation and purpose. The founders emphasize the importance of community partnerships, such as those with Austin Peay State University, to remove barriers to success. Ultimately, the program seeks to transform adolescents into productive citizens by establishing scholarships and providing consistent professional support.
