Resource Fair
The Mount Tamalpais College Resource Fair is an annual event held inside San Quentin that brings students together with community organizations working in education, employment, legal support, and reentry services. The event is designed to create direct connections between students and programs that can aid their transition home and support planning for life after incarceration.
“I loved accessing these resources. They were all geared to help me reach my goals and dreams. When I think about going home, I don’t fear anything but coming back in here.”
