Location: The ROC,115 Putman St., Sulphur Springs
Topic: GED program at Hopkins County Jail
Presenter: Dr. Millie Nylan
Dr. Millie Nylan will give details of her work with inmates at the Hopkins County Jail. Her work is a local initiative, focused on teaching inmates the educational skills they need in working toward the GED exam.
Dr. Nylan proposed the program, which began in 2017 with approval of the Hopkins County Sheriff.
Dr. Nylan works with inmates 4 days a week to help them attain skills they currently lack. The program includes fascinating facts about the mindset of those incarcerated.
Several of our members have heard Dr. Nylan’s program in other settings. They tell us her information is interesting, inspirational, and not to be missed!
