Fostering Reentry Success: Advancing Second Chances in the 118th Congress
Attendance will be limited for this function, so your prompt RSVP is very much appreciated.
More than one in three adults in the U.S. have a criminal record. These individuals face over 44,000 government-imposed barriers to work, housing, education, and civil rights that limit their efforts to become responsible stewards of their families and communities. How can churches, businesses, law enforcement, and policymakers better unlock second chances for Americans who have paid their debt to society? What can our society do to reduce cycles of recidivism, addiction, and unemployment among individuals leaving our nation's prisons and jails?
Please join Prison Fellowship for a conversation with formerly incarcerated individuals, business owners, and center-right leaders about the importance of fostering a culture that promote second chances.

- Stanley Ball, Vice President and Chief Litigation Counsel at Eaton Corporation
