INSPIRING HOPE THROUGH TRANSFORMATION
"I used to be known as somebody that couldn't be trusted because I liked carrying guns, and I used to sell drugs all the time, and people were afraid to get into the car with me."—Luis
Luis Centeno grew up in Little Village, an inner-city Chicago neighborhood. "I started off on the wrong foot and just continued with what was there," Luis says. "What was there" was trouble.
He started out messing around with drugs. Soon he progressed to drug dealing and carrying guns. The convictions started piling up.
When Luis was 28, he was arrested with nine kilos of cocaine and a gun. He was charged on three separate counts of drug possession, drug distribution, and possession of a firearm. He was sentenced to 120 months—a decade—behind bars. "I was like, 'Man, my life is done,'" he remembers.
