Just before Christmas Eve, several brave women, clients of the Probation and Mediation Service and active members of the Yellow Ribbon community, received an invitation to an extraordinary meeting with the President of the Republic Petr Pavlo and the First Lady Eva Pavlova.

With the idea of organizing a holiday audience The Office of the President of the Republic addressed the Director of the Probation and Mediation Service and our founder Gabriela Slováková. It was the long-term work of the Yellow Ribbon, as well as the volunteer and ambassadorial activity of Barbora Černošková, who sensitively opens the topic of people with a criminal past and the effects of punishment on their children, that captivated the presidential office. Thanks to this, this topic has come to the center of attention even at the highest state and social levels.

From 2024 onwards, it will gradually opens space for an open, substantive and at the same time humane debate on penal policy. A debate that makes sense — either thanks to the patronage of the President of the Republic or through discussions on the floor of institutions such as the Chamber of Deputies.

At the end of December, Seven women from all corners of the republic went down to Prague Castle. Each of them in the past, for various reasons, came into conflict with the law and passed the execution of punishment. Today he stands firmly on his own two feet. They were able to close this chapter of life and start again thanks to the professional support, patient work of probation officers, but also through their own determination.

All these women take care of their families and loved ones with dedication, but at the same time selflessly help even people they did not know before. They educate themselves, work on themselves, develop their projects and inspire their surroundings. Whether within organizations, community activities, or just as part of Yellow Ribbon. They prove that second chances make sense.
