Cathy Ames Turner

One Stop Shop
Cathy Ames Turner is a pastor, playwright, and scholar-activist who walks with families affected by the mass incarceration of Black/African American men, women, and children in and around Charlottesville, Virginia. A recent graduate of Fielding Graduate University, Cathy's journey continues as she and her husband, Tony, launch an organization to focus on healing and relational reintegration for incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals in collaboration with local agencies, community-based organizations, and reentry professionals in Central Virginia. One such collaboration to which she is deeply committed is with the One Stop Shop CVille -- a local, grassroots response to the needs of individuals coming home from incarceration as well as individuals in the community that simply need help.
