What a wonderful program! We need more like this, more Mr.Cains too!
Congratulations to the men that seized this opportunity and made the most of it!!
I also agree that high schools should bring back vo-tech training programs-and encourage girls to take these too. They teach a lot more than skills and a trade!
Again, outstanding work, and congratulations to all!

@nod
This program is available at George stone I took it in the early 90s when I was in high school. The school has all sorts of financial help if someone wants to attend without money all they have to do is apply. So what I’m saying is don’t make excuses for those who don’t want to better themselves

Good story, good man. Wear your safety glasses/welding lens or you will go blind looking at the arc.

If they had this program available for people that never went to jail and it said it was free maybe there would be less trouble and pwople in jail.

I went to the camp for a about 8 months between 2013- 2014 I was accepted to the welding class with Mr Cain. I received my welding certificate while I was there and got to learn a trade after I was able to get a job with in a short time welding at a company in Pensacola that me and my family are very proud of.

Danny Cain is a fine Christian man who has done a lot for our Community! I think it’s wonderful that he is helping to rehabilitate those who want help and are incarcerated.

So glad this program is still available to the inmates. I wish the road prison would bring back the other classes that were cut several years ago. Rehabilitation is the key.

AWESOME Program and need more of these for the other craftsman skills.

Public Schools have done our students a HUGE DISSERVICE by dropping the Shop. Woodworking, Carpentry, Bricklaying, Welding, Auto Mechanics, Homemaking Skills curriculum in favor of playing games and such on cell phones.

I rate the guys who work on the brakes of my truck right there with my heart doctor as both help keep me alive.
