Description
"Second chance hiring is the practice of hiring individuals with a criminal record. Second chance hiring is not only altruistic, but it also taps into a massive source of talent that many businesses can benefit from. There are an estimated 70 million Americans with arrest or conviction records that create significant barriers to reintegration into society." - US Chamber of Commerce
The more-than-600,000 citizens who return from prison each year offer talent, loyalty and motivation that Hopkins County employers have begun to discover.
Join us for a Second Chance Employer conversation where you have the opportunity to learn the How and Why of offering 2nd chances and tapping into a new hiring pool. Hear success stories from local employers and learn how you can fit this opportunity into your hiring practices.
