Do you enjoy short films?
Yes?
This event is for you!
We would like to introduce the
Financial Literacy Film Festival.
This first time ever event, gathers
talent from the local community,
to create a series of EDUtainment
(Education + Entertainment)
short films scheduled to be screened
on 04/03/2020.
How would you or your business
like to get involved with this festival?
Influencers, Filmmakers, Writers, Actors, Directors, Cinematographers and more have joined our very important global movement to help people become more financially literate.
Join the tribe on Facebook,

https://www.facebook.com/groups/112312483489343/
THIS is HUGE:
Have you heard of
#SafetyForSarah
Our Film Festival has been approved by the:
THE SARAH JONES
FILM FOUNDATION
https://www.safetyforsarah.com/the-foundation
*Would you like to align yourself
with a TOP Hollywood movement?
Let's talk!
What is the point of this event?
EDUCATION brought to
underserved communities
in a fun way.
How can we educate the world about the rules of money, provide training and safety guidance to the local entertainment business industry,
and still have fun while doing it?
Our solution:
Create a film festival with an educational theme!
"Teach. Coach. Mentor."
So, What kind of movies are these exactly?
Bite-size and thought-provoking short films,
created with the help of the entire global community.
Films will range from 3 minutes to 10 minutes each.
We will watch 7-10 short films.
We use ART and we use
CREATIVITY to
tell important stories.
*Red carpet entrance for all attendees.
Building a team with like-minded people is a great way to go deeper with connecting about things that really matter, to you and your family.
Short films are a great way to connect people within the community. People don't usually discuss politics, religion, or anything that does not have something to do with the current project on a film set.
The Financial Literacy Film Festival believes that
Collaboration and Expressing, are beautiful ways to build
long-lasting and meaningful relationships within our communities.
Let's build!

Anti-Recidivsm - What are your thoughts about this?
Blog: 3 minute read about Anti-Recidivism

>>Anti-Recidivism!! <<
Say it. Learn it. Educate others.
Say it. Learn it. Educate others.
George Ohan in Hollywood
at the iOW headquarters.
I started this mission over 5 Years ago!!!
Few people have supported my mission, but I don't give a damn, I wont stop this, because I know there is a young man or woman behind bars right now that needs me to advocate for them.
Proper Teaching, Coaching, and Mentorship will help our youth go down a path of success.
I can show you my proven results!
I can show you my proven results!
I will NOT stop spreading this knowledge and information. The U.S. Government and the people who work at Juvenile detention centers get paid to keep children in cages.
Yes, some people do bad things.
Yes, some people make mistakes.
Yes, kids can be taken down the wrong path.
Yes, some kids are Guilty crimes.
NO, not every child deserves to be thrown into the U.S. Juvenile jail system which is designed for profit.
The REAL question is, "What are the people who work at these jail facilities do to help these kids stay out of jail?"
Do these government employees volunteer their time to HELP kids, or do they take their bi-weekly check and enjoy their own FREEDOM, off the backs of incarcerated children?
I have PERSONALLY asked over 10 employees from various Juvenile jails, "Excuse me, Do you know what Anti-Recidivism is?"
The answers are dismal, but the LOOK that I get.... they look at me as if I have a huge di*k growing out of my forehead! Confused as heck!
Not ONE person who works at a jail that keeps kids locked up, not even 1, has been able to answer my question.... That's an embarrassment to how our system does things. It's obvious they're MUCH more interested to keep these kids in cages, rather than helping them stay out of jail.

Photographer put on the spot by ex-cons, Hollywood, CA
Hollywood, CA - Interior - InsideOutWriters HQ - Vermont Ave.
I wrote a poem...... It's a couple of paragraphs down, but you don't want to miss the good stuff (do you!?) so you should keep reading..... Ok?!
A large unlikely group of people gathered together for a writing session in Hollywood and they were prepared to be brutally honest with each other. I was there volunteering time, taking photos and video of this meeting for my buddy Mr. Jimmy Wu, Case Manger, IOW. The footage of this live event was to create a going away video for Sister Janet Harris. (Look into her!! Very impressive woman!!)
The instructor, Mr. Gary Gilbert (was fantastic!) quoted a few people and different songs and ended with a quote from Jill Scott. I can't remember it exactly but it was something along the lines of, "Does a good man exist?" Since I was in the room I was asked to participate in the writing exercise along with everyone else, including Miss Wendy P. Killian, Esq., Executive Director, IOW.
This was the first time I can remember writing and reading out loud what I wrote in a group setting like this (besides school). It was an interesting experience because everyone also had to do the same thing and share their honest thoughts. Everyone in the room was equal. Some of the poems that I heard were absolutely amazing, I was blown away at the talent that existed in that room. The cool part was that these people were not professional writers, they were just people sharing their real life experiences.

A good man is easy to find. Just look in front of you.
A good man exists; Don't believe the non-sense.
A good man is ready, willing, and able to guide his own life by asking for the help of better men.
A good man never gives up.
A good man always looks for a better way of doing things.
A good man speaks up for weaker people.
A good man will not settle for second best.
A good man knows what he's worth, therefore will not offer himself to every woman.
A good man is willing to be patient with the things he cannot understand.
A good man respects people from all walks of life.

https://www.facebook.com/insideoutwriters
InsideOUT Writers (IOW) was founded in 1996 and incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in 1999. IOW grew out of the vision of juvenile hall chaplain, Sister Janet Harris, former Los Angeles Times journalist, Duane Noriyuki, and several other professional writers who volunteered to teach creative writing to youth incarcerated in Los Angeles County’s Central Juvenile Hall. The founders’ sensitivity and respect for the power of the written word fostered an environment of trust and camaraderie whereby students’ creativity flourished in spite of the harsh and oppressive conditions of detention.
What started as three weekly classes at Central Juvenile Hall has grown to 39 weekly classes in four juvenile detention facilities (Central, Los Padrinos and Barry J. Nidorf Juvenile Halls and Camp David Gonzales). IOW also offers a class at LA County’s Men’s Central Jail for former juvenile hall students who are now serving time in the adult prison system.
As a complement to the writing classes, IOW also convenes annual Writers’ Retreats at each juvenile detention facility and publishes In Depth, a quarterly literary journal of students and alumni writings. Since 1996, more than 11,000 youth have participated in over 15,000 classes.
In 2009, recognizing the need for comprehensive re-entry programs and services, IOW expanded its work to include efforts to support former students upon their release from detention. The Alumni Program provides a continuum of care to Writing Program students who have been released from detention and seeks to ensure they are empowered with the skills and knowledge necessary to be self-sufficient agents of change in our communities. Through the Alumni Program, young people receive services and participate in programming designed to support their on-going development of pro-social attitudes and behaviors that will serve them well as they continue in their transition from incarceration.
The Alumni Program is comprised of six interconnected components: 1) case management; 2) life skills enrichment sessions; 3) a mentoring program; 4) writing circles; 5) community engagement and 6) cultural events & field trips. The goal of the Alumni Program is to reduce participants’ likelihood of re-offending and to increase their skills and capacity to become self-sustaining, productive members of our communities. Since its establishment, the Alumni Program has served more than 100 young people and has partnered with over 125 local community organizations to provide dynamic programming and services to meet their needs.
