A local group that makes a push to help offenders re-integrate into society and stay out of prison is receiving a funding boost from St. Louis and St. Charles Counties and St. Louis City. The Concordance Academy of Leadership works with offenders to tackle substance abuse, jobs, education and life after prison. The program is 18-months long, starts in prison and end after someone is released.

Stith, a Concordance Board member who has been serving as Interim CEO since August 2024, will lead the organization in its next phase of growth and impact.
