He was considered a master teacher through most of his tenure. In 2010 he received the KSL Teacher Feature award and then in 2017 was honored by the Utah Education Network (UEN)\, UAACCE as the Outstanding Adult Educator. Mark has always appreciated the many young (and more recently older) people he has worked with over the years and credits them for his successes. Mark is very active in his church. He and his wife Angie live in Central Utah and are the parents of 5 children. \nPreface\nThough I truly loved my job in the prison\, in the spring of 2019 I made the decision to retire. I had spent 34 years in the education system\, the last eight working at the Central Utah Academy (CUA)\, inside Central Utah Correctional Facility (CUCF) in Gunnison\, Utah. \nMy wife and I were on our way to Cedar City\, Utah\, to attend the annual Adult Education Directors Meeting and were reminiscing on my previous eight years. I had so many stories and experiences and names. It was enjoyable. As I thought through the many events of those eight years I suggested to my wife that it seemed that all my friends are felons. Along the conversation\, Angie mused that I ought to write a book. We both laughed while contemplating the possibility. \nOur trip to southern Utah included a visit to the Washington County Correctional Facility\, Purgatory. Several years prior\, inside CUCF\, we started a computer coding program for the inmates that we later shared with several county jails throughout the state. Purgatory was one of those facilities. I wanted to go and support their new computer coding venture. \nWe are all broken. That’s how the light gets in.\nErnest Hemingway \nAs I entered the jail and made my way through security\, the director and I walked into the large classroom. At the desk in the corner sat the inmate tutor. I immediately recognized him as a previous student from CUCF. He greeted me warmly and we visited about his life since CUCF. A short time later\, the classroom began to fill with student/inmates\, about 25 or so. Among them I recognized a half dozen\, knowing four by name. When they saw me\, they all approached and expressed their appreciation that I had come to visit. After that exchange\, I turned to the director and with a wry look on my face said\, “All my friends are felons.” His response was immediate\, “That sounds like the perfect title for a book.” \nSeveral hours later as I climbed back in the car\, I told my wife of that exchange and well\, here we are. I determined to write a book. \nAbout the Book\n \nImagine your perspective if you are the one who is incarcerated: You have done something terrible to others and fully deserve it. You may have grown up “on the streets” or may have had a good life that you threw away because of some terrible choices. You are now stuck behind bars. You want to change but everything around you prevents it. Everywhere you look there is rampant corruption. You feel like you are living in a cesspool. Every day you worry that you will anger the wrong person\, inmate or guard. Every day you wonder if this will be the day that you are beat up or thrown in Special Management Unit (SMU\, a secure holding cell)\, sent to a county jail or worse. Every time you dare think you can change and make the attempt to do so\, the reality of where you are\, and all the obstacles\, including the “system” are staring you down. \nImagine you are a guard: getting up every day with no hope. Imagine going to work every day knowing full well that the environment where you are going is hopeless and meaningless. In the beginning you had hope. You are charged to guard inmates. You imagined you could make a difference. You thought that you could help. After a short time\, however\, you realized that the system and the environment are too overwhelming to do anything positive. Every time you try\, you run into a roadblock within the system. You are criticized for trying to create meaningful change. You are told that it won’t make a difference. You are told that those you wanted to help don’t deserve it. You are considered a traitor because of the “us vs them” attitude that prevails at your work place. You are stuck in a job that provides little in the way of positive outcome for you or for the people you are supposed to be serving. You spend your day in boredom. \nNow imagine my perspective as an educator and seeing 1\,500 students who need help\, lots of help. Many of these students made grave mistakes. Most have done serious damage to someone or something. Many were remorseful but saw no clear path to correcting their behavior. In fact\, they are living in a world that encourages and develops criminal behavior. Imagine being there with your “students” and having your hands tied. Your responsibility to help is real. However\, because of a broken system\, you are not allowed to do anything positive. You come every day to work with 200 students who are mostly passive. You know full well that there are many\, many more out there who need your help\, though they may not want it. Your predecessors told you that you would have nothing to do\, that you would spend your days reading the paper and standing in the hall during “movement” of prisoners between classes. They advised you to keep your door closed so as to not invite the “students” in. \nIMAGINE \nHope lies in dreams\, in imagination\, and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality…\nJonas Salk \nImagine\, through either providence or sheer dumb luck\, that\, you as an educator\, find your way to help all these parties see a better path. In your daily interaction with these “students” and their jailors\, as well as your faculty and staff – eliciting the help of all – you are able to see the many flaws in the current system and develop a program that\, in a small way\, opens the path and opportunity of growth for many of them. Imagine a grown man\, 58 years old\, standing in the doorway of your office pitching a fit because he had to come to school. Then imagine him two and a half years later as he stands in the same doorway\, this time in tears\, thanking you and your staff for the opportunity of learning. For the first time in his life he felt he has hope for the future. Imagine an officer\, who at the beginning of your tenure\, was critical and mocking as you started to try to make change. Now he comes to see you before you retire\, thanking you for the positive effect the changes have had on those with whom he worked\, as well as on himself. He was dreading the “next 15 years” but now comes to work with hope and a vision. \nThis is an account of how our group of teachers\, inmates and some Corrections staff\, over the course of eight years\, effected real change inside the Gunnison prison (CUCF). \n  \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:UPAN Monthly Meeting | Topic: Film Screening UNTOUCHABLE
DESCRIPTION:UPAN Monthly Meeting – Special Event Extended Time\nScreening of the documentary film UNTOUCHABLE\, produced by David Fiege. When the most powerful lobbyist in Florida discovers that the nanny has sexually abused his daughter\, he harnesses his extraordinary political power to pass the toughest sex offender laws in the nation. UNTOUCHABLE chronicles his crusade\, and its impact on the lives of several of the 800\,000 people forced to live under the kinds of laws he has championed. The film interweaves intimate portraits of men and women who have been branded sex offenders with the heartbreaking stories of those who have suffered sexual abuse. It is a film that pushes viewers toward an uncomfortable place\, requiring them to walk in the shoes of those who have survived sexual abuse\, but to still bear witness to the experiences of those we revile. Free and open to the public. \n \nUNTOUCHABLE – Festival Trailer from Meerkat Media on Vimeo. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:#Cut50 National Day of Empathy
DESCRIPTION:#Cut50 National Day of Empathy – Presented by League of Allies and UPAN\nBritnee Webb of League of Allies\, UPAN and others areorganizing an event focusing on creating empathy & humanizing the experience of prisoners and their families. Guest speakers\, open forum\, more info to come. Please invite anyone interested. We would love to have former inmates & their families present to speak in the forum. Ideally we want state officials\, legislators & policymakers present\, because this is who we are humanizing the experience for. We want them to see our inmates as more than numbers. \nAbout #DayOfEmpathy\n\n\n\nDay of Empathy is a national day of action to generate empathy on a massive scale for millions of Americans impacted by the criminal justice system.\n\nIn order to reform our criminal justice system\, we must first humanize and empathize with those who are impacted by it.\nThe Day of Empathy will highlight the needs and share the perspectives of Americans impacted by the current justice system – from survivors of violent crime\, those who are addicted or mentally ill\, incarcerated individuals working to transform themselves\, people with a criminal record desperately seeking a second chance\, and all community members impacted by crime\, public safety\, and violence. \nWithout empathy\, we cannot achieve meaningful policy changes that keep our communities safe\, our families whole\, and our economy strong. \nThere are thousands of people – mothers\, daughters\, children – who have stories to tell. \nThe Day of Empathy will shine a light on people impacted by the criminal justice system\, uplift their voices\, and win over hearts and minds towards the idea that transformation is possible.\nHOW WE’LL DO THIS\n\nOn March 1st\, 2017 organizations across the country will be activated for a single day of action to spotlight their local efforts and unite under a unified banner to highlight the strength of the bipartisan criminal justice reform movement.\n“Ambassadors of Empathy” will meet with elected officials in State capitols and Governors’ offices across the country. They will share their experiences and how they have been impacted by the criminal justice system. Legislators will gain first-hand experience of the human consequences of a criminal justice system that has gotten too big\, too unfair\, and too brutal.\nThe Day of Empathy will feature storytelling\, digital media\, and virtual  realitycontent to humanize formerly incarcerated people\, survivors of violent crime\, and millions of others. By delivering a set of powerful\, emotional experiences to lawmakers and fellow Americans\, the Day of Empathy will accelerate the bipartisan drive to create more effective\, efficient\, and humane criminal justice system.\n\nOUR TEAM\nWe have teamed up with storytellers\, media industry insiders\, technology leaders and policy experts with direct access to leaders in the U.S. Congress\, the White House\, criminal justice activists\, major news outlets and technology pioneers. \n\n\n\n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:UPAN Monthly Meeting - August 2016
DESCRIPTION:The Impact of Sex Offender Registries on Offenders and Families\n \nPlease join UPAN for our next monthly meeting\, presented by Matt Duhamel\, Metamora Films. This is the presentation he made at the 2016 Prisoner Family Conference in Texas earlier this year. Matt Duhamel\, a former TV news and radio personality\, has turned his attention to helping others through the power of independent film. He agrees with the idea that film can help individuals\, communities and entire societies by increasing compassion\, tolerance\, understanding and forgiveness. By learning from his own personal trials and past failures\, Matt uses his experiences as life changing tools and applies them to his thought-provoking films. You may have noticed Matt and Heather Duhamel attending several of the past UPAN meetings filming for his current production called\, “Not for Rent!” about ex-inmates’ struggles with the Utah Good Landlord Program. We are very excited to have Matt as a guest speaker\, you’ll not want to miss his presentation. Free and open to the public. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:UPAN Monthly Meeting - May 2016
DESCRIPTION:Please join UPAN for our next monthly meeting. Our guest will be Andrew McCullough who will be running for Utah Attorney General. We will hear from him about what the AG office does. UPAN families can share with him their concerns about Criminal Justice Issues in Utah. While the AG’s office doesn’t have a significant role in criminal justice reform\, it does sometimes push legislation that impacts the criminal justice system\, and not always for the better. It is also our understanding that the Attorney General’s office works under the Governor\, so that office COULD have some influence in how the Governor approaches criminal justice reform. Free and open to the public. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:UPAN Monthly Meeting - January 2016
DESCRIPTION:Get to know your Legislator (Bring Your Legislator To UPAN Meeting)\nWe are asking our UPAN participants to contact their local representatives and senators and invite them to our January 2016 meeting. You can find out who they are by going to: le.utah.gov. E-mail them\, call them\, and send them a written invitation. This will only be successful if we all do our part to invite them! \nIf you wish to speak at this meeting\, please arrive about 10 – 15 minutes early to sign up on the speakers list. We will begin on time at 6:30 p.m. \nAgenda & Objectives\n\nThis will put a face to the names we hear about up on the Hill. And they will get to put a face to the constituents they represent.\nWe can give first hand stories about the real people being affected by the laws they are passing.\nWe can let them know what we would like to see happen with new criminal justice reform. This will be accomplished the same way we did when Ron Gordon of the CCJJ came. There will be a list for participants (you) to sign up in order to speak. Each speaker will get up to five minutes to express their views. We would like this to be a positive experience for all involved\, so no negativity will be accepted. Our representatives should come away with an appreciation of everything we as families\, and our incarcerated loved ones\, are going though. We hope to share\, ideas that continue to facilitate positive change. We need their help\, they need our experience\, and we need them to be on the side of truth\, fairness\, and healing. Free and open to the public.\n\nChange of Venue Notice\n \nDue to a problem with the heating system in the Draper Library\, we have been informed that our reservation for that location for our January 11th meeting is CANCELLED\, so our meeting venue has been moved to the Salt Lake City Public Library located in downtown Salt Lake at 210 East 400 South\, in the 4th Floor Conference Room. For those who have invited their legislators\, please notify them of the change in venue. The date and time has not changed. Also\, if you know other family members of inmates please help to inform them as well because our January Newsletter will not reach inmates in time for them to inform their families. \nParking at the Main Library\nAn underground parking facility can be accessed from eastbound 400 South between 200 and 300 East. Parking in this city-operated facility is free for the first half-hour\, then $1.50 per half-hour after that. Any vehicle displaying a disability special group license plate or disability windshield placard may park in the parking garage at Library Square for two hours with no charge. Additional time beyond the two hours is $1.50 per half-hour. This parking structure offers two electric vehicle charging stations located in the southeast corner of the lower level (P2) of the parking garage\, as well as two on-street electric vehicle charging stations located near the 500 South exit ramp (255 East 500 South). \nThere is some street parking\, but make sure you feed the meter and watch the time\, as they are not necessarily free after 6 p.m. \n\n\n	Related
