APCC FRESH-START WAS FOUNDED IN MEMORY OF MY DAUGHTER

It started with the loss of the CEO's only daughter Afton who was killed April 18th 2002 at 17 years old and now Appalachian Promise-Fresh Start (APCC) provides workforce training for those incarcerated to transition while behind bars. APCC supports all Law Enforcement and works within the walls of the jails reducing recidivism. We strive to give back to the community and show these men how to go from menace to men. We stand united with all parties who battle against drugs in our communities. once released these men have full time jobs, training, are tax paying citizens, have paid court costs as well as restitution but more importantly they have paid child support and have a relationship with the Lord.
