Mural Arts said they were eager to continue working with Biden, though the exact details of the wellness center are still being worked out.“This is a developing endeavor rather than something that’s already set up,” said executive director Jane Golden in an interview with The Inquirer. “It’s an idea that we think has real merit, because we’re looking for our participants to have a place to turn to after they leave.
The program enrolls 15-25 women who were formerly incarcerated or on probation. During 18-week sessions, the women attend classes and trainings while also working on public art projects across the city, Golden said; they’re paid $15 an hour.
