impressive reflecting the good work you are doing in the area. Several
people on the Addictions Ministry Team have mentioned reaching out to
those in jail, so I will keep your information and when they are ready
I will have them contact you for guidance by those who have gone
before into this arena.</font></div>

Friends,</font></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" color="#000080">I read the article in the<i>
Bangor Daily</i> about the addictions ministry. What you
are doing is very hopeful and we are extremely
appreciative.</font></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" color="#000080">Since 2001 we have had a jail
volunteer program in Ellsworth at Hancock County Jail. Some
of our friends settle in Bangor and the proximity to your
program could be an opportunity for their support in
recovery.</font></div>
