After spending six years in prison, Tim Arnold was determined to help others avoid that fate, so he decided to launch Lawnlife, a nonprofit that employs formerly incarcerated individuals and at-risk youth. He has since hired over 700 people, in the process teaching them a strong work ethic and business skills so they can stay out of the criminal justice system. Arnold believes that everybody in prison deserves an opportunity at a second chance – they just have to earn it.
