During April Second Chance Month in Kansas, it's positive to focus on the potential for transformation and the value of second chances for individuals returning to society after incarceration. We're grateful for the work and leadership of Secretary Jeff Zmuda and Deputy Secretary of Adult and Juvenile Community Based Services, Megan Milner, as they spearhead the efforts of countless staff members who make a difference in creating second chances on a daily basis.

For the 2nd year in a row, more than 30 bands from around the Kansas City region are booked to play on a Thursday night between March and October. It's win-win-win situation as local bands who are looking for a gig, can play before a "captive" audience; the residents are welcome to hear a free concert; and administrators say it all adds to a calmer, safer environment. Rock on, LCF!
