Never Give Up Hope chronicles the lives of 10 current and former youthful offenders as they candidly share details of the mistakes, consequences, and regrets surrounding the irreversible crimes they committed.

P.S. Never Give Up Hope serves as a form of redemption for these condemned criminals.

It celebrates the special bonds we forge with our four-legged companions and reminds us that their love for us—and ours for them—need never end.
