A Matter of Time

By Jeffrey Abramowitz

Life is a series of choices. And sometimes, those choices
lead to consequences of life-changing proportions. For Jeffrey Abramowitz,
choices and consequences led to a five-year sentence in a cinder-block building
called Justice. Tracing his journey that took an unexpected detour, Abramowitz
gives readers an unfiltered glimpse into the realities of life in a US federal
prison--the struggle to adapt, survive, and most importantly, find purpose
despite deep regret and pain. This search for purpose led him to the
intersection of justice, education, and workforce development and forced him to
evaluate just how effective (or ineffective) the systems for reentry are.
Shedding the visible shackles worn inside prison, Abramowitz faced the
invisible but tangible shackles of reintegrating into society as a convicted
felon--a challenge that fuels the ever-revolving doors of US prisons. A Matter
of Time is a call for educators, criminal justice administrators, returning
citizens, legislators, and employers to recognize the innate human
susceptibility to make poor choices--and the immense capacity to learn from
those mistakes. Having dedicated his life to empowering those within the
justice system, Abramowitz shares his path from pain and remorse to creating a
life of meaning and happiness.
