Eldra Jackson III is a writer and public speaker on at-risk youth advocacy, effective criminal justice rehabilitation, and turning around ‘toxic’ masculinity. Eldra brings clarity of purpose, mission focus, and inspiration to his role at Inside Circle. He was an inmate at New Folsom Prison when he found Inside Circle and began the inner personal journey that eventually led to his release in 2014 and his current leadership role. A living example of successful rehabilitation and re-entry, Eldra has dedicated his free time to serving at-risk youth, acting as a facilitator, trainer, and mentor for organizations like Youth Empowerment and Goals Association, Shoulder to Shoulder, and the Alternatives to Violence Project.

Watch the documentary here, The Work: https://www.topic.com/the-work. "Inside the chapel at California State Prison, Sacramento, three members of the public enter into an intensive group-therapy session with convicts. Over four days, the men tear down their defenses, laying their pasts bare in emotional and sometimes physical ways. The prisoners and civilians are brought face-to-face with the men they were—and the men they want to become."
