'Lights on' with St Vincent De Paul OC & Micah's Way

Since it was established five years ago, the Lights On
program of the Orange County Council of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul has worked with about 4500 freshly-released inmates each year. Volunteers staff the Lights On RV every night, from about 11 p.m.—earlier if the volunteers can swing it—to 4 a.m. The trailer provides a safe haven in the middle of the night, offering hot coffee, food to stave off hunger pangs, cell phones to call for a ride home, and even donated clothing to ward off
the evening cold.
