Liz Stroder was incarcerated in the California correctional system for 25 years, the majority of which she was sentenced to Life Without the Possibility of Parole (LWOP). Though faced with a sentence of death by incarceration, she chose a path of transformation, growth, and personal empowerment. While on this journey, she discovered a passion for helping others. Liz began facilitating classes, developing curriculums, advocating for change, and implementing programs to encourage and empower her peers. In 2017, her sentence was commuted to 25-life by Governor Brown; she has since been released from prison and parole. Today Liz continues to inspire change and give hope to system-impacted people through education, action, and empowerment.
