CEDRIC DEAN is a leader, an educator, and sometimes even a psychologist. But most of all, he is a mentor, motivating the misguided with the same sizzling enthusiasm that allowed him to transform from a gangster to a genius. Growing up in Charlotte, N.C., he had aspirations of being a thug, but after regimented years of learning, labor and loneliness, he preserved. Now he is committed to teaching the misguided the mistake in not learning from his mistakes. Cedric Dean's New Life Curriculum -How To Stop Your Children From Going To Prison is designed to help stop the 9 to 15 million at risk youth in America from going to prison. This guide will lend a hand to parents and help properly train a next generation of productive citizens and dismantle the pipeline to prison and premature death.
