Transcript of Interview with Jack Pransky 
 
 
 
Alexandra: Jack Pransky, welcome to Unbroken. 
 
 
 
Jack: I&#8217;m very happy to be here. 
 
 
 
Alexandra: So nice to meet you. 
 
 
 
Jack: Nice to meet you too. It&#8217;s a pleasure. 
 
 
 
Alexandra: Thank you. 
 
 
 
Tell us a little bit about your background and how you became interested in the Three Principles. 
 
 
 
Jack: So many people have heard this story that I have a hard time recreating. I was involved in the field of prevention for many, many years; prevention of problem behaviors, alcohol and drug abuse, child abuse, domestic violence, delinquency, or things like that. I got to the point where I sort of knew what I was doing. And, decided to write a book about it, called Prevention, The Critical Need.

But when he brought a couple of people with him from the housing project that he worked in, he was talking about how the housing projects, which is a horrible place, had gotten completely turned around. I could tell from listening to these people that their lives would never be the same, like something deeply had happened with them that we were not used to seeing and prevention.

Alexandra: As they say. Well, that was one of my questions. 
 
 
 
Tell us a bit more about that book and about the community of...
