About this episode

Mark Wilson shares his journey from prison to becoming an advocate for justice and restorative practices.

Prison didn’t stop Mark Wilson from becoming a force for good—it’s where his journey into advocacy and restorative justice began. In Part 2, Mark shares how he used his time behind bars to create programs that empowered others to grow, take responsibility, and prepare for life after release. His work didn’t end when the gates opened—today, he’s a paralegal with the Oregon Justice Resource Center , helping people inside and out access justice and support. We talk about reentry, rebuilding family connections, and what it really means to live with purpose after incarceration.
