From inside the prison art classroom to life beyond incarceration, we witness women as they rebuild lives and find they are worth it. This film is about more than second chances.

Fighting Malaria in Zambia
Malaria remains a leading cause of preventable illness and death in Zambia. But bringing testing and treatment closer to home is helping change that. Through Partners for a Malaria-Free Zambia, Rotary and its partners trained 2,500 volunteer community health workers to test and treat malaria in their own communities. Two years after the funded program ended, 94% of those roles remained filled, bringing care closer to more than 1.25 million people. #worldmosquitoday - This global observance aims to raise awareness about the severe public health dangers posed by mosquito-borne illnesses.
