Florida Democratic gubernatorial candidate Gwen Graham meets Jarvis Guthrie, an ex-offender who now works with Operation New Hope as a recruitment coordinator. “I am not a label of crime, but a product of second chances,” Guthrie said in a news release about the visit. Graham spent Wednesday working at the faith-based nonprofit community development corporation in Springfield to learn about their efforts to develop affordable housing and help ex-offenders with workforce training and family reintegration. ”Operation New Hope serves as an example for reintegration programs throughout our state and nation. Jacksonville is fortunate to have such a great organization, and I am fortunate to have spent the day working with them,” Graham said.
