Show Notes

A car can be a second chance: that’s the framework of Vehicles for Change, a nonprofit that repairs donated cars and awards them to low-income families at a fraction of their market value. Repairs are completed by participants in Full Circle, a job-training program for people returning from prison. We hear from founder Marty Schwartz … and Perry Spain, who finished the program and is on his way to becoming a master mechanic. He describes the benefits of classroom teaching combined with hands-on instruction.
