About Us

Hello I am Yolanda and my 19 year old son Gary is currently incarcerated at Santa Rita jail in Dublin Ca...this is his first time ever being in jail and this ordeal has really taken a huge toll on all of us..I am a single mother and for the majority of my children's lives it has just been me and them ,because I didn't have my ex-husband, his family, or my family as a support system..I have always worked and tried to lead by example and raise my children right ..but when it came to my son Gary the outside influences over powered my teachings.....

which has led to me feeling helpless/powerless, because their is nothing I can do to get my son out of this situation..I can't post his bail because it's 1 million dollars, I can't get him a good attorney because they want $15,000 dollars with at least $7500 down..I CANT AFFORD THAT!! SO HE IS STUCK WITH A PUBLIC DEFENDER OR COURT APPOINTED ATTORNEY WHO SEEMS TO BE MORE FOR THE STATE THAN MY SON!!!!! he is going through pre-trial and this just seems as though it's going to never end..could somebody please tell me does this feeling of helplessness ever go away? and how to better cope with this so that I can be more of a strong support for my son...thanks
