Since we opened in 2009, we have welcomed home 35 innocence people. Our reentry community has grown to include more than 50 freed and exonerated people. At this year's events, we celebrate homecoming, honor award recipients, and together invest in the future of this important work. We are proud to present this year's awards - click through to watch a video clip about each award recipient:
