Who is Prison to the Streets Movement?

 

The PTS Movement meaning "prison to the streets movement," is a movement of men and women who were once a part of the prison system as inmates, who are committed to doing what is right for self and community.  Using our artistic skills as writers, producers, performers, actors and the many arts, we channel these energies towards our youth in an attempt to teach them not to do wrong based on our past experiences.   We do this through music and films and other means.  We believe that "a wise man will learn from the mistakes of others." We feel through our past misfortunes which sent us to prison and present agenda of "building a better community," we can be a springboard for positive change in our communities nationwide. Because who better than us to reach out to them?

The PTS Movement:  The purpose of the Eagle Fellowship is to organize the people we serve and to create a united voice through our guidance and to create a network that collectively and cooperatively works together on social and economic issues, to find solutions and carry them out thereby fulfilling the mission of the NCN "building a better community."  And to build better character from among and within our fellowship, because we realize we are stronger when united and together our body is the temple of God. We are a spiritual body but not a religious order. Though we are directed by God, we are not guided by any specific religious doctrine and therefore is bound by the purposes, mission and vision of the NCN during our fellowship meetings, addressing community issues.

The PTS Movement, who are committed to building a better community.  What goes on in those meetings is closed to the public and stays within this group, thereby creating an environment of trust and integrity.  Also note that many of our members of the PTS Movement hold religious titles such as Minister and Reverend allowing them to congregate with other felons in doing what they understand is the work of God.
