Lemery watched for years as frustrated, hopeless young men cycled through his courtroom. Many of them ended up in Tillamook's local juvenile prison. Lemery came to understand the reasons behind their failure: poverty, illiteracy, abuse, and absentee fathers. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDespite disapproval in his community, Lemery began visiting the prison and speaking with these young men.

As walls came down, new portraits emerged of boys who wanted to be decent, caring, contributing men, but didn't know how. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eMentoring Boys to Men\u003c\/i\u003e is the story of how the simple gifts of time and a compassionate ear made the difference in the lives of these juvenile offenders.
