Dear About Time,
A problem I have come across here at Woodford is that the only reading glasses you can get (if you are poor and not eligible for free prescription glasses) are #16 and are only 2.0 magnification! Well, if you need any other magnification (like: 1.5, 2.5, 3.0, 3.0 or 4.0), TOO BAD! Read and sign documents at your own peril. I think you get the general idea but I’ll clarify it a little: for the disabled or less literate it can be alarmingly stressful at times when being told to read or sign things.
I, for one, cannot see the reasoning not to include other choices of magnifications on the “Prisoner-to-pay” sale to prisoners (STP) process?

When I paint, I'm not in prison anymore. I'm lost for hours in my artwork.
I’d think there are a lot of inmates looking for someone to talk to, for some people it might help with the healing process.
Since having my first ever grandson nearly 3 years ago now, it’s made me realise that I not only want to change, but I need to do it not only for myself but for my family.
My name is Jean. I am a wiry spitfire, 65 years young, and incarcerated for the past 24 years with a L.W.O.P. (Life Without Parole) sentence.
