Turning Lives Around Through CORY

Robert Lucas, a former inmate with 17 years behind bars, is now transforming lives by founding Voice of Da Voiceless and teaching CORY—a powerful middle and high school program that helps teens discover themselves, build leadership, and create real-world business plans. Through mirror-making exercises and community-focused projects, Lucas turns personal reflection into action, empowering students like Naziah and Nurdin to channel creativity, avoid negative influences, and believe in their own potential—even without immediate rewards. His mission? To rewrite the script for at-risk youth by offering the mentorship and tools he never had, proving that lived experience can be the most powerful catalyst for change.
