Episode 06: Cyprine Omollo

In this episode you will meet Cyprine Omollo, program Manager of Clean Start Kenya.  Clean Start is an organization that helps women and girls transition back into society after being in prison or juvenile detention.

Cyprine shares her story of having being imprisoned herself for being unable to pay her debts and sheds light on the desperate plight of women, girls and children she met behind bars.  It was after serving time at the remand section of Langata Women’s Maximum Security for six months, that Cyprine was a recipient of the newly founded Clean Start program herself.  Today Cyprine and the Clean Start team not only help to empower women & girls while imprisoned, but also coaching them in their transition back into the community, to find jobs, housing and the skills necessary to support themselves in a healthy and sustainable way.  

Since being released from prison in 2014, Cyprine has received training at Resurgo Trust London in Coaching for Leadership and has was selected for the Global Change Leaders Program at St. Xavier University in Canada 2020.
