Counteract: Walking Alongside Incarcerated Youth in Central America from Prison to Purpose (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798385065318)

Inside Central America's juvenile prisons, a quiet revolution is unfolding. But it is not the type one might expect in rough places like these. Instead of an uprising, young offenders are rising up through redemption, resilience, and radical hope. Young people incarcerated in these centers are born into a battle. They are raised in poverty and surrounded by violence. They are shaped by trauma most adults will never know. They are labeled as criminals, discarded by society, and marked as hopeless. Rarely are they told their lives are worth fighting for. Until now. With raw, real-life stories, Greg Harris and Francisco Molina take readers behind and beyond the bars to discover what happens when faith shows up in the darkest places. Youth who have been cast aside begin to realize they are more than their worst mistake. Today, they are overcoming and succeeding.
