Arthur Bolkas (Part Two: Road to Redemption)

Use the time. Don't let the time use you. Arthur says this was the best piece of advice he received during his 8 year stint in the netherworld of Pentridge Prison and other gaols for armed robbery when he was a young, confused man. He received another piece of wisdom during his time that he says encapsulated all the study he did in his Masters of Criminology. Arthur has dedicated a lot of his life to helping prisoners transition from gaol into the community and serves as a mentor to many. He has been on a long healing journey, too. In Part Two of our special with Arthur, we come to learn how prisons and prisoners have changed over the last 40 years and what Arthur belives true rehabilitation means. It's been great having Arthur on our show the past month. Thanks for all the work you've done over the years helping others, Arthur. You have been a great guest.arthurbolkas.com.au
