Apostle/Prophet Ron D. Harris

Apostle Ron D. Harris is the founder and and president of Last Chance, Inc. Last Chance was designed to reach junior high and high school students, who are the primary targets in today's society to distribute drugs, or become members of street gangs. Ron, a former gang member himself, knows the importance of reaching children at an early age before it's too late.
Ron grew up in a broken family without a "father" present in his life to spend time with him;to love him; to encourage him to make the right decisions when put in difficult situations. As a result, Ron experienced a feeling of "worthlessness"--the same feeling that many children experience today who are without a father figure in their life. He can relate to their hurt, anger, and hostility--the feelings that often drive our children to commit violent acts.
Ron experienced and distributed drugs when he was a student in junior high and high school. At the age of 14, he moved to a large city and was quickly educated about drug life and how to use it and not abuse it. He was forced to join a gang the very first day he moved to his new home. It was through this experience that Ron learned, first hand, what peer pressure is all about--the value and rewards of making the right decisions and the consequences of making the wrong decisions.
Sharing his experiences with junior high and high school students on TV, radio programs, and in prisons throughout the country has enabled Ron to touch many lives and be very successful in reaching our youth.
Last Chance is an intervention/prevention program that is designed to reach the heart and minds of children and to set the stage to each the importance of one's self-esteem by developing a sense of self-confidence, self-worth, and initiative that will be reflected through their personal growth and academic achievement.
