Reader's Digest has published the story of Patty and Siobhan O'Reilly, who have been part of the IPP family for a dozen years. Patty was the first surrogate survivor speaker for our Victim/Offender Education Group over a decade ago, and Siobhan was the inspiring survivor speaker at the last annual Beyond the Bars celebration. The O'Reilly family's journey with Insight Prison Project began with a card Siobhan made, complete with a panda sticker, when she was just 8 years old.
