Shad Hagan, a compelling voice in the discourse surrounding criminal justice reform, brings a unique perspective to the table as a former inmate turned advocate. Enduring the challenges of incarceration within both state and federal systems, Hagan's journey is one of resilience and redemption. Armed with academic achievements including a Master’s degree in Criminal Justice and a B.S. in Corrections, Hagan's professional trajectory led him to the heart of Oklahoma's Department of Corrections. Here, he passionately championed for the implementation of humane policies and effective reintegration strategies. However, disillusioned by the lack of meaningful action within the system, Hagan boldly decided to step away. Now, he advocates for education, rehabilitation, and equal opportunities for the formerly incarcerated. His mission is clear: to reshape narratives, rebuild lives, and forge a path toward a society where every individual has the chance to rewrite their story.
