Creative Corrections Education Foundation

Creative Corrections Education Foundation Inc. is a 501(c) (3) organization based in Beaumont, Texas that provides new educational opportunities for at-risk young adults of incarcerated parents who otherwise are extremely likely to participate in criminal activities. By providing the possibility of a better future, including academics, financial, l... egal and social success, we are able to empower these young men and women to change their lives.
