Join us for a powerful and thought-
provoking screening of "Sentenced," a
compelling documentary narrated by NBA
superstar Stephen Curry. This film sheds
light on the profound impact of illiteracy
across our country and shows how a lack of
literacy skills can lead to a cycle of limited
opportunities, multigenerational challenges
in school, substance use, family violence
and incarceration.

Why should you watch Sentenced?

• Inspiring Narration: Experience the impactful narration
  by Stephen Curry, who brings a unique perspective and
  passion to the topic.
• Eye-Opening Insights: Gain a deeper understanding of
  the challenges faced by individuals with low literacy skills
  in the justice system.
• Call to Action: Learn about the steps we can take to
  support literacy programs and advocate for change
  within our communities.

Join us for enlightenment and engagement as we explore
the intersection of literacy and justice. Your participation can
help spark important conversations and inspire positive
action
