The Sunny Center

The Sunny Center Uniquely dedicated to the healing and happiness of the exonerated and their loved ones who have suffered the effects of wrongful incarceration.

Sunny Jacobs spent 17 years in a Florida prison for a crime she did not commit. Peter Pringle was wrongly imprisoned in Ireland for 15 years. Both were exonerated, but received no compensation or assistance to reenter the society that had so deeply wronged them. The two met at an Amnesty International event and bonded over their shared experiences with miscarriages of justice. They soon found peac

e and love, and now dedicate their lives and their home to helping other exonerees do same. As exonerees themselves, Sunny and Peter are intimately familiar with the struggles that plague individuals released with nothing after years of incarceration: no home, no job, no skills, and often times no family, friends, or sense of self. It is their goal to provide a safe haven for these people to heal from the inside out and to build a new life for themselves, one in which they will not be identified by their wrongful conviction or exoneration, but by who they are as human beings. Guests at the Sunny Center are invited to stay as long as necessary (usually around a month). Travel, food, and accommodation are provided at no cost.

***Flights for exonerees are funded by donated air miles. If you would like to make a donation, either in miles or money, please visit sunnycenter.org.***

In addition to donations, volunteers are always needed at the Sunny Center. Volunteers are expected to help with the animals (goats, hens, dogs, cats), gardening, and housework. Accommodation and food will be provided as needed. Please contact Sunny and Peter at [email protected] for more information.

Sunny & Peter had many animals at the Healing Center, and visitors could count on having company any time they went for a walk!

We were moved to tears at the The Innocence Network Conference as Paul took the stage for The Moth storytelling segment we all look forward to at the end of the conference. After spending nearly 35 years wrongfully imprisoned, including almost three decades on death row, Paul didn’t just share a story. He shared the strength of a man the system tried to forget.

Today, Paul has been free for over 6 years. Seeing him use his voice to inspire others is a powerful reminder of why this work matters.

📸 Thank you to Innocence Project of Florida for catching this great shot of Paul.
